Due to the suggestion on here to get a 3d printer I went ahead and got one last week.? One of the first parts I made was a much needed dial indicator holder for the mini lathe.? I had been putting off making one of metal but I don't mind using up some plastic for testing it out.
I found the cad drawings online for the body then made up the knob to tighten it down.? I'm using a metal screw and nut to hold it in place.
I'm amazed at what these 3d printers can do along with the excellent free software available to design and print.??
I may make up a few of these holders if folks are interested in one.? I'd just ask for $5 to cover shipping and the small cost in materials. I need to make a few tweaks still.? These would be made in PLA and may not last forever but then again the price is low ?
