Re: Starratt Co.



If this is the company I'm thinking of, Starratt is a very old manufacturer
of precision instruments. I used to deal with their calipers and levels on
rare occasions in my former career. They are/were located in the
northeastern US. I don't know if they are still in business or not.

Best wishes,
