    Dial Indicator Holder for the QCTP

    I have a QCTP for the 250-001 size. This is the small one for the 6 to 9" lathe.
    I also have a few of the larger Dial Indicators that I want to use with this lathe.
    This QCTP indicator holder fits the need.

    It is easy to setup with a 10-32 allen head cap screw for 3 distances from the lathe center which
    is in addition to the cross slide travel. Two 10-32 allen SHCS are used to retain the indicator and
    one to position the main arm on the QCTP adapter mount.
    This one is all T-6061 aluminum from my stock so I did not have to purchase anything to build it.
    Best thing about it.....Well it is Quick and only has 2 parts plus the screws.

    Full prints are in this post. Check it out!
