[QUOTE="IHFarmer07, post: 2543943, member: 75397"] I have used pvc or similar pipe, measure the ID of the turret and see what will fit…..I make a mental note where the bottom of the turret stops on the elevation post(most have numbers) and then measure that. Cut the pipe to that length which will be long, I then take off some using sand paper or if it’s extremely long hacksaw. Once you get to the spot where it was(which a person could cut a piece of freezer tape or painters tape and mark with a pen or whatever you choose to get a more accurate visual) set it at zero and start dialing and see if it returns to zero, if it’s too tall yet take more off and repeat…..too short, well try again with another piece. Good luck [/QUOTE]
