    A Precision Electronic Edge Finder Probe

    Computer Numeric Control (CNC) is not possible without the machine knowing the location of reference surfaces on the stock. Here is a probe I use in my CNC mill, along with one of my Electronic Edge Finders. I adjusted the Total Indicated Runout to be less than +/- 0.0005 inches. There was no value in going tighter due to spindle runout.
