Does anyone have a picture of a Hightower lathe with his 1" dial indicator mounted.
I got the indicator in the mail today... Not sure how it mounts to the cross slide...

If you give Chris a call he will talk you thru it!

Yes he will. With pictures in an email also.

I bought both mounts as well. The one was obviously straight forward. The other had a couple of Doo Dads that I wasn't 100% on.

Once you see a pic of it on the Cross Slide, you will know.
 
This is the way i did mine, also i called Starrett and had them to put a 100 thousands dial on a 50 thousands Gage, that way when you take .005 that's what you take is .005 on a regular Gage if you dial .005 you will take .010, just my 2 cents worth.. Good Luck.
