I think this might be the way. My touch-probe doesn't actually fit the
horizontal spindle, but the coaxial indicator does. I can imagine
making a feature into which a turned button can fit, to be centred to
the indicator.

Though I was rather hoping not to have to re-invent a technique for
something which I feel sure is a frequent operation?
