Inside and outside calipers.

Inside calipers for measuring the hole . . .
And outside calipers for measuring the
shaft that fits into the hole.

Adjust them so the points just touch the item
to be measured. Then lay the calipers down on
the tape measure (or ruler).

By the way, if the hole (or shaft) being measured
is not round . . . then you got a different
problem.

Thats an inside caliper/compass for measuring inside things. A ring would qualify I suppose LOL..........

Now if the points pointed in I have used those for lofting a pattern for the bow break water on that woodie bought I built. Its for getting crazy outside measurement where you can use a taped measure. Like around things..
