Can anyone recommend a good brand of skin calipers (digital or not) for under $50 that has given you consistent measurements. I’m sick of bothering my boss at the gym where I work to measure my skinfolds, so I figure I ought to get a set of my own. That way, if there are mistakes, I can only blame myslef. Thanks.
Enforcergraphics.com - several good cheap models also a 3 & 7-spot method of cal. BF that are very good. -LW
the best skin calipers are from accumeasure. They are like 15 bucks and they have them at musclemaster.

Slim Guide - they have tension in the form of springs so their tension is always the same making the measures more accurate. They are only $20 plus shipping from what I remember. do a search on yahoo and you will get many matches - you can find slim guide calipers for $20 so do not pay more and I only paid $6 for shipping.
You can find Slim Guide calipers at Creative Health Products www.chponline.com
