A long time ago I picked up a Co-Axial Centring Indicator at a boot sale - didn't pay a lot but it's so long ago I cannot remember how much.
When I tried it, there was a little bit of run out, which I never solved. If you turn the shaft relative to the body you get about half of one division of wobble. Never been able to isolate which bit is wonky or how to solve it. As far as I can tell, the culprit could either be the flat ground surface that the probe holder rests against, or the central shaft.
I thought during my enforced light duties I'd dig it out and see what I could do with it. Answer; nowt, nadda, nothing as I can't seem to dismantle it. Anyone been inside one of these things and can give me any clues? It looks that the cross piece that holds the swinging probe holder is riveted on - but that seems a rather odd construction for something that should be fairly precise.
Any pointers appreciated.
