It's probably your dickering wif the wiring on dem planes. They fly up and cause all sorts of interference and *s-worde.

Let me try this then .I did a copy _paste from another forum because I could not find it on my giant Blackwater hard drive . That thing is huge and has the stuff from 4 previous computers on it and it's not even close to being full .Your picture ain't showing up some reason Al.
Yup Steve, same one.I've this gizmo that can go in a drill chuck on the tailstock, steadiness assured. Relatively affordable depending where you find it. Works good, I think that Doc Al @drf256 might have something similar.

Woohoo, it worked this time.

@Moparmyway turned me on to it. It was sub-$75 if I recall correctly. Randy MM uses an American made long reach version thats quite pricey.
Pretty sure it’s called a coaxial indicator.
That is a very impressive shop. Well done sirLathes are similar to chainsaws. Once you start by purchasing one you just gotta have more. I have three working metal lathes and a fourth small collector piece that is small enough to be a wall hanger. I am an old retired machinist and have a small machine shop in the back yard to play in.
View of about 1/3 of the shop:
9x24 South Bend made in 1907. Was my Dad's, I hauled it from the Georgia Coast all the way up here to Washington's Olympic Peninsula.
Two Jets, a 13x36 belt drive foreground, a 14x40 gear head Jet with Enco badge background.
"Smoking" Nothing smells better in a Machine Shop than hot cutting oil.
A couple of mills in the shop also, 10x54 Jet below:
Opening up a Solex for more air flow
Opening up a M700 for longer cartridges
