Undoubtedly old news, but I just picked up a Brown and Sharpe "Vest Pocket Speed Indicator" for about $15.00 U. S. I've only played with it, but it seems pretty accurate and fun to use. Using it all day every day would probably get old very fast, but for a quick check on a spindle speed this and other mechanical speed indicators seem like a (now) inexpensive and nicely made tool. All the ones on eBay seem to go for under 20.00. Am I missing the downside to these? Apart from needing a clock with a sweep second hand...
