Indicator Holder For Quill?

[gb1551]

Does anyone know if this DIAL TEST INDICATOR QUILL HOLDER for BRIDGEPORT MILL will work on my MP932 mill?

The clamping dia is 1 7/8". I believe the spindle dia on a MP932 is smaller.

Make a spacer and screw it into the side opposite the thumbscrew.

it should work, as I modified one to use a Noga arm, and it works perfectly on my PM-940.

Thanks for your comments. I like Dan's modified Noga arm. I never thought about a spacer, maybe I will glue it on.

Just throwing out another confirmation that it'll work. I have a 1 7/8" capacity SPI and it fits nicely on my 932M.

Well you have a mill. That would be a simple, fun project to make sized to your quill.

Good point

Hey, that looks familiar Dan. I did the same thing for my Noga. Didn't care for the stem style they had available becuase I didn't want to always have to pull our whatever tooling was in the quill.

Nice job.

Mike.

Thanks Mike!

I have that one and it fits my 727. It is pretty shaky in the joints, I think I am going to reuse the mount point and make new arms
