I havenent tried it on my dial indicator, but am planning to do so.

He just wants to make a suggestion to possibly look into it. He is afraid of the cost factor. They are just trying to break into the market and the unit is I think $105. If he calls me back I will have him contact you. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Fowle To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 1:18 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] New and questions about an oil gage If the engineer wants practical suggestions about building in speech, I'd be happey to help, please don't hesitate to provide him with my contact info, this is what I am supposed to do for a living.
