    The pin is long enough to fit both the 24 or 10 division rings. Just make sure you make them the same diameter before machining the indents. This indexing method should be suitable for most lathes whereas I made the Myford one to suit that lathe and utilise an existing threaded hole. That method is much more rigid too. Happy to answer and other questions, good luck with it.
