Precision instruments? Never heard of them. In physics lab, students break out the micrometer—an actual precision tool designed for accurate measurements—and somehow still get an 8% error. Meanwhile, the professor grabs a $1 store ruler and nails it with 1% error. It's almost as if years of experience trump fancy equipment. The universal law of lab work: the more expensive your tool, the more spectacular your failure will be.
