Not that I've found, Jon. its made of pretty clear plastic castings and has 3 posts sticking out of the bottom of the plastic body, with adjusting nuts so the 3 armed plastic web holding the probe itself can be tilted, and in tilting it one could center the ball for very low runout. Kenneths idea of an arm so it could be rotated 180 degrees and an average runout be determined sounds like a good idea, but I'd like to see how Kenneth arranged his stops, which I think should be magnetic so the wires couldn't drag it off whichever stop it was stuck to. > > > _______________________________________________ > Emc-developers mailing list > Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
