Buy a micrometer, or better, an electronic set of calipers. Use them
to measure the thickness of various thickness of plastic and use the
plastic. You would be amazed at all the things you will use the
calipers for. They cost about $95 for the electronic ones but the
cheaper dial type are far less. I would feel crippled without mine.
Harbor Freight has a set of 6" digital calipers for about $16 that are
quite good. Actually far better than you would expect for made in China.
They work well and the fit and finish is quite good as well, even the
"made in China" is laser etched in the stainless instead of a sticker. I
picked up two of them a few months back and I'll probably pickup one of
the $35 12" version the next time I'm at the HF store.
