Indicator Fine Adjuster for magnetic base or other mount

[marksbug]

Ive had a few ..well to many indicator bases that had those fine adjusters on them( on one of the shafts)...I hate them.tomuch flex witch gives you the rong readings. I throw them away.yours does look a little better and may work fine.have you checked it at all angles of attack agnist a non"jointed" set up? check it every 45 degrees or so to see if there is any deflection, probably wont be with the way you made it witch looks a whole lot better than the crap I throw away. I also hate the china indicator bases that have the PLASTIC rod connectors/pivots/joints..and also...the junk fine adjustment..that shortend the rods length when removed......wtf??crap there go's my blood pressure....errrr. yours does look very eazy to make. I may have to make one.
Ive also started buying the digetail indicators (1&2" travel type) they move so freeley it reduces any chance of anything flexing.most modern indacators seem to have way to tight of a spring in them. no I dont buy any more expensive indacators, all cheep **** for me these days.they read the same and when you drop or smash one you just laugh and grab another new one off the shelf.it's just those dam strong springs that i dont like in the analog type. but sometimes thats needed.and sometimes not. and the digital units on flebay for $12. aint a bad deal.I have many of those too. You can never have tomany indicators on tools and on the shelf's. I only have 3 or 4 dialtest units on hand...
