A normal set of calipers has 3 basic modes of measuring things: inside, outside, and depth. It is amazing to me how many people in this thread don't know at least one of those or use them wrong.
At least it makes me feel good that I only just got a set for the first time last week and figured all those out within 5 min of actually using them.
