Had some trouble with shipping and the seller stepped up and made it right! The product arrived exactly as described, the holder is a well built, all metal and operates very smoothly. A nice addition to my shop.

No it’s not a high end indicator but it’s perfectly fine for indicating holes or flatness . I got it for indicating my build plate on one of my 3D printers , I’m a retired machinist so I do know what I’m looking at . For a cheap indicator the movement is really smooth and I didn’t need to adjust any side play out , was great straight out of the box !

Dial test indicator work good. Quill clamp works good. Unfortunately, the dovetail holder to mount the DTI to the clamp has one thread on the male part and a different thread on the female part. The thread is so loose I "stripped" it with my fingers. That is a MAJOR pain when working late at night trying to get an emergency part done. Now I get to spend even more time 'fixing' the new tool.I can't tell the accuracy because the indicator moves away from the part instead of measuring the part.

I bought this thinking I could save some money - boy was I wrong. The clamping unit did not clamp securely. The indicator did not read accurately. Disgusted, I returned them. Then I went and paid good money for a quality Indicol clamp, and a quality Starrett 'Last Word' test indicator.If you accurately tram the head on your Bridgeport milling machine, you can accurately make things. If you cheap out on the tram-ing process, everything you make will be inaccurate. Spend the money on a real Indicol clamp, and find a good used Starrett 'Last Word' .0001 test indicator. You'll be glad you did.

I was a little worried by the low price, but I've used it a few times now and it's been just great. I got a great deal on the mount with the test indicator so I figured why not get a spare indicator for cheap. (and then a week later I won an ebay auction that included 8 Brown & Sharp test indicators, LOL) Anyway, it holds on just fine and works like a charm.

Accurate and reliable. Used on a daily basis, it holds up in my machine shop. Turning the dial to reset zero is a bit sticky. It’s loosening up a bit over time. Still feels “gritty” while spinning the dial. Not as good as the name brands by any means. Gets the job done though. I recommend it to employees as a first time buy for new machinists to save them money.

The clamp and arm are very nicely made. All the parts fit together very well and it is nice and strong at holding the indicator in place. The indicator works well. The only issue I have with it is, the bezel for setting zero is too tight. It's pretty much impossible to rotate it and keep the indicator in place. Maybe more use will free it up some but zeroing the indicator is really frustrating and pretty much impossible. For the price though, it's a very good kit.

The holder is great and just as good as the original. The dial indicator seems low quality but it does hold it zero and seems to work well so I'm happy.
