a touch surface I turned a steel piece 1.25" diameter with a 1/4-20 threaded 
stud on the bottom, and honed the top surface smooth and flat.

And that, Andy, looks like it would work better than some I've paid $75 for. Neat idea.

Hello!



I need to add tool length sensor to a Biesse retrofit. So I wanted to ask the 
audience to share their experience of where to get one.

I found this:

Any thoughts on how good/bad it is?
