    Hi HoneyDuer
    I would like to point out this is not my design (wish it was) but a commercial supplied Lathe bedstop from Colchester, all I have done is modified it to accept for the operating handle.
    I have added a photo of the stop disassembled so you can see all the component parts, the small knurled thumb screw not only locks the micrometre dial but also retains it. The drive from the micrometre dial to stop shaft is via a key pin in the dial and a key way in the shaft the pitch of the stop is 0.5mm therefore one full rotation advances the stop 0.5mm and is calibrated so.
