CA 2380561

A pair of attachment brackets coupled to the first and second measurement jaws of a handheld vernier caliper. A first bracket couples a first caliper jaw to a linearly moving component within a machining apparatus such as a lathe or milling machine. A second bracket couples the second caliper jaw to a stationary component within said apparatus, thereby enabling the caliper to accurately track and measure relative distance between the two machine components. Each attachment bracket includes a first magnetic or mechanical clamping means for orthogonally gripping onto a caliper jaw. Each bracket further includes a second magnetic or mechanical clamping means for orthogonally gripping onto a stationary or moving component within the machining apparatus. Another embodiment includes a first bracket that orthogonally mates a first jaw of a first caliper to a horizontal reference tablet and a second bracket that converts the caliper's second jaw into a touch probe, thereby enabling the caliper to measure Z coordinates on an object. Another embodiment includes second and third pairs of brackets that attach second and third calipers to the reference tablet such that the touch probe can also measure X and Y coordinates on the object.
