What is the reason for using dial indicators rather than the micrometer dials on the cross slide? Mosey |
| Pete.:
Very simply, the dial on the handle tells you how much it should have moved but the dial indicator measures actual movement. |

Hi Stephan, An interesting well made addition to you lathe, I have a Chester DB8VS lathe which has a bed similar to your lathe. Yes I will be making one for myself, glad you posted it. Cheers David |
