I think I already know I can't touch these... but just wondering if anyone has any experience either to confirm or tell me how they can be done.  I believe this is NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) stuff, and uses eddy current associated with pulsed ultrasonic transmitter/receiver.  I think the NDT people usually have reference samples they use to check them(??).  I looked around on GIDEP and couldn't really find anything (I found a nice NDT handbook - whole book).  If anyone else is eternally curious about everything like I am, I'll be happy to share the title if any GIDEP participants want to go in and get it.  Have a great week all, and don't forget WORLD METROLOGY DAY is soon.
"I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind."
