Recommended Digital Calipers for measuring parts (+ rare Clutch Test Implements.)

[Willy Tschager]

I measured one of the parts and captured all of the dimensions (in MM) on a piece of paper.  Should this be enough precision to design an ldraw model of the part?

• Precise measurements: https://brickarchitect.com/files/Part_15...ements.pdf
  
• Part on LDraw: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat...7#T=C&C=12
  

Any tips for capturing measurements in a format that's easier to translate into LDraw parts?  (I had considered capturing the measurements directly into a digital app like Adobe Illustrator, but paper was a lot faster and more flexible.)

Looks good. Instead of measuring in mm you could convert your measurments to LDU right away, which gives you some clues when comparing your part to other parts for reference:

Conversion is best done using LDPE's converter or:
