[QUOTE="milanuk, post: 269272, member: 376"] Eh... I've got one of Grizzly's stands that clamps it in place and rotates a bit. Not my favorite tool, and one I've about chucked in the trash on a number of occasions. I think two Jorgensen wooden hand-screws clamped together would work better than that ***. Not a bad idea, actually... lightbulb Took the feeler gauges and measured the one marked 0.012"... with the ball mike it measured 0.0116-0.0117". With the Mitutuoyo calipers, 0.0115-0.0120". With the dial indicator (any of them) I had a bloody hard time getting that feeler in there without influencing the reading, but the minimum reading I could get was about 13 thou. The indicator seems fairly repeatable, even if its readings are a bit 'off'. [/QUOTE]
