Two thing that should be pointed out.
1 - When using an Interapid indicator, put the stem in the hole on the end of the Indicol clamp where your dovetail is, thats one of the reasons people buy and use Interapids.
2 - Never tram a mill by running the indicator directly on the table, place it up off the table and swing it over a hardened 1-2-3 block or such, move the block around to the 4 corners as needed, this helps take the error out of the tram reading from dings or scraping marks on the table, it basically averages them out.
