Coax indicator design |

BillTodd:
This coaxial indicator design is one I've been working on for a while. The images shown do not include fixings or screwed joints. Before I commit it to metal, anyone have any comments on the ball angle changer ? |

Hi And welcome Bill . Great idea/design :dremel: ,,sure will take up allot less room with the DTI mounted that way ,,,,,,,,,,,, :med: Rob :D |
BillTodd:
Thanks for the welcome Rob :) --- Quote ---less room with the DTI mounted that way --- End quote --- That's the whole reason for making it. My little Haighton hasn't much room below the vertical head. I wouldn't be able to get a Blake type in there. However, I can't take credit for the idea, it was inspired by this clever design by PM member Wes43: http://home.comcast.net/~nonsense91/SALE/Coax%20Ind.JPG judging by the pin to the top/left of the DTI, it uses a lever to turn the movement 90 degrees.

Bill, I use one of the normal ones, and one of it's major faults is the length. In fact, I have made shorter probes to allow me to use it with my RT with the chuck fitted. I suppose the angled design actually shortens it by over one inch, which has to be good. Bogs |
