Calibration of vernier calliper can be done using slip guages i.e. mirror finished rectangular blocks of alloy steel having different sizes & error less than one micrometer. These blocks can be joined together by sliding polished faces over each other to get disired length. Measuring this length & compairing the actual reading, we can calibrate the equipment.

To calibrate a combination square, you can check the accuracy of the 90-degree angle by placing the square against a known straight edge to verify that it is square. You can also use a protractor to measure the angle. If the square is out of alignment, you may need to adjust it by loosening the screw on the ruler and repositioning it until it reads 90 degrees.

One can use gear tooth vernier calipers by first setting the instrument's chordal addendum on the addendum vernier. After this, one should straddle the gear tooth with the caliper, bringing the tooth together until no jiggling about can be felt anymore.

How do you calibrate your ds?

You need to about calibrate your ds about one time every three weeks. The reason you need to calibrate the screen is that the Nintendo has a touch screen, so it depends where you touch it. If you calibrate the screen very very closely you will get the exact touch on the screen. Once I didn't calibrate it and i missed a big chance of doing something on my Nintendo. GOOD LUCK!!!
