Machinist T-Shirt - "-ish Is Not a Tolerance" Funny Micrometer Machine Shop Tee

-ish is not a tolerance. Every machinist has been handed a print with a vague number on it, and every shop has the person who says this out loud. This tee puts the rule on a blueprint grid. An outside micrometer, drawn with its C-frame, graduated sleeve, thimble and ratchet, measures a small brass part, and a leader line runs up to a drawing callout reading 1.0000 ±0.0002. Below it, someone's handwritten 1-ish has been struck through in red. The slogan sits underneath in bold spaced capitals.

Wear it on the shop floor on a casual Friday, to a trade show or to the parts counter. It is a good gift for CNC and manual machinists, toolmakers, QC inspectors and the apprentice learning to read tenths. Available in multiple colors: Natural, Soft Cream, Heather Dust, White or Light Blue, plus Black, Navy, Heather Forest, Maroon or Dark Grey Heather. Sizes S to 3XL.
