WiZeR: you have to go through the check out process - a box for the discount code will appear then it recalculates the total.

It worked for me on Sunday evening - goods dispatched yesterday!

odd, i don't see it at all?

I've had both the Rutlands one and the Wixey. The Wixey is easest to calibrate, it's easiest to fit, and is more accurate.

Well that may account for the Rutlands one being in the sale. I suppose to be fair they don't claim it's use on a thicknesser. It's as well someone has first hand experience though!

I ordered the Rutlands one and sent it back straight away, wasn't even the one they picture.

I hope they are paying all costs? Out of interest what was it they sent then? and thanks for letting us know I was getting tempted to get a couple to add to some other kit.

Told me all postage would be refunded. Here's what I ordered

Here's what I got

Look similar, but the one I ordered has more positioning features. Oh and it was supplied with a flat battery as well. Rutlands are going downhill IMO.

Forgive me for digging up an old thread, but anyone know if a digital read out devise has been marketed that reads correctly, can't seem to find one that has the same facilities as the Wixey?

I e-mailed Barry Wixey to which he replied almost immediately and pointed my in the direction of this: https://www.machine-dro.co.uk/wixey-rem ... mm-12.html exactly what I wanted.
