Unless I'm measuring something over 14 inches long (which means I don't need resolution), I exclusively use fine ruled stainless rulers. Mine are imperial one side, both 1/32 and 1/64 inch scale, and metric at 0.5mm on the other side. I use the 1/32 inch scale for most things because that's "as fine as normally needed", but I use the metric side if I need to do math (dividing things, summing lengths, etc).

A set of a few lengths from Amazon is about $10, so it's a no brainer type tool that I use DAILY.
