Thanks Jiihoo  :beer:   

The indicator seems to be zeroing even better today. Seems very smooth and quiet compared to before surgery. 

Maybe it's working better today because it's warmer. It was -10F last night. When you're dealing with a tenths of a thou indicator, maybe temps matter. Or maybe it's just working itself in after years of disuse. Anyway, it's even better today.

Good job Steve.

I don't think that return to exact zero is that important on that kind of unidirectional indicator. You need to offset the scale anyways to allow negative reading when doing real life measurements.

hi well dune  :D  well as to not returning back to 0 comen problems may be at hand 1 to much oil on the rack  the bush that the spindle runs in may still be needing a good clean the way I do it is  with a pace of wood made to be a snug fit in to  the hole DO NOT use sand paper or a file to make the wood fit use a knife then once a nice fit is at hand just rotate the wood and keep doing that till the wood comes out clean.  not enough tension  on the back lash spring all D.T.I's have different No of turns on this spring so its by trial and era to get it right as for the screw on top of the spindle shude be screwed all the way in and the big mistake people do move the plunger to fast the plunger only moves slow in use and the one big factor in its acracy is its age and haw badly its worn   its quite conmen to see on the face juled   movement when their are non fitted   the  more you do the better you will get at it regards bob
