[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 583766, member: 25383"] if you gotta get by with a .001" dial indicator, make sure you use a wand type. The big gear and rack ones are border line junk when it comes to being precise. Years ago they did make a jewled gear rack indicator that was certified for 3% lag. The normal gear and rack type have about 10% lag in them. Most folks could get by with a good B&S "Last Word" indicator for 85% of their work, and never look down on a GEM. I prefer Interrapids for their zero lag, and of them (I think I own six) I like the .0005" best. Brown & Sharpe sells a similar one, and it's a very good one as well. Avoid the Chinese built ones as they are not even up to junk statis gary [/QUOTE]
