Hi guys,
Just wanted to share a quick project that I did for my lathe. Finally built an outboard spider a while back but needed to mount an indicator nearby for quick access. Here's a few pics of the mount and bushing.
Many thanks to Mark Jacobs and Alan H. for their great posts on spider builds and for sharing their knowledge.

Looks great. Excellent work!

I did something similar a couple years ago. I mounted a steel plate so I could use one of my Noga magnetic bases on it.

Hi Ken,
Thanks very much. I was going to do exactly what you did, but then the gears started turned (pun intended), and I let it get the better of me LOL. I guess I just wanted an excuse to spend some more time on my lathe and mill. My home shop is my therapy ;-)
