[Deals] I think I got quite a deal!

The black C shaped indicator holder in the second to last pic. Assuming it's an original, judging by the age of everything else it probably is. There are many cheap knock offs, later real Indicols are red now.

Thanks . Yes I knew it was an indicator holder of some type. I just didn’t know what it was called.

An Indicol is really handy on the mill for finding center of a hole or boss relative to the mill's spindle. Mount a dial test indicator to it, clamp to your spindle and manually rotate the spindle around a hole/cylinder, etc. I usually do it in 180's, look at the RH reading and rotate to the left. Move the table half the distance off the DTI and repeat. Once centered on X, repeat the process on Y.
