Dial Indicator Holder
thingiverse
The dial indicator I own has a flat bottom, unlike many I find online with a protruded round hook. I designed this thing as a multipurpose holder for the indicator using Sketchup. This is my first 3D design and used it as a learning process. Hope some others may find it useful too. Glad to have any comments/feedback. Printed in PLA, 30% infill. The bolt is printed 100% infill. Support needed. However, I manually put support only on the front nose hanging part. I used this method for manual support in Cura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Pz5jSYFXQM Holes M8 coarse and M4 fine Can be used stand alone, or used with a slider as shown in pictures. The slider can also be designed and 3d printed, but I chose to do one with MDF on my router table. Depending on the calibration of your printer, if you scale up/down the model, the screw holes will be enlarged/shrunk too and might not fit the M8 and M4 screws.
