DraftingMan/Compositepro: I've just understood the "spring loaded indicator with large anvils" is in fact what draftingman has proposed.. That certainly sounds like a good solution to try out - I had never seen one of those before.
I might attempt the beam setup with a "large anvil" LVDT, if...
IRstuff: the variation we're getting depends on suppliers, it ranges from +/-0.2mm to +/-0.05mm every 200mm along the edge periphery. I'm looking to get a clearer picture of the average thickness of the entire honeycomb sheet by getting a grid of measurements of maximum 200mm x 200mm apart...

I'm looking for a way to check the thickness of large pieces of honeycomb (1500mmx1500mm)
Until now we've been measuring the thickness at various points along the edges and averaging out, however this is not very accurate as it doesn't take any measure of the points within the edges...
