Scrap Bin Tail Stock Depth measure

[garage nut]

Always wanted one of them, but no 12mm Ali lying around of DRO vernier, So what is in the scrap bin?

Piece of 32mm Pipe and some 10 x 10 sq bar.

After some welding, drilling, tapping and painting and it is done.



Setting to "0" is moving the piece of yellow tape.



Crude but a lot easier than counting turns.
