Clive,

I've seen an instrument manufactured by FOB (Feinmechanische Optische
Betriebsges m.b.H.) in Salzburg, Austria, called DIAL DENDRO.  In their brochure
they claim to be able to measure readings as small as 1/10 mm.

Their address is:
        FOB
        Postflach 12
        A-5035 Salzburg
        Austria
        Phone:  0 66 2 83 23 20
        FAX:    0 66 2 82 58 94

This is to locate a supplier of dendrometer bands.

I wish to take periodic measurements of small increments in diameter growth on
some 200 trees that are 20 cm (10") or more in Dbh.  Many years ago I worked
on a project that used dendrometer bands to do this.  I have tried to locate a
supplier for the bands, but with no success.  The closest thing I can find is
a "microdendrometer" from Forestry Suppliers; this is a single unit that costs
more than $700 ... Does anyone know of a supplier of dendrometer bands or
similar equipment that is appropriate to the task above?

Thanks in advance.
