My most used magnetic indicator stand does not have its original dovetailed clamp. None of the clamps I have, Mitutoyos and the Interapid ( thank you Michael G ) photographed below, will fit. I looked for a tiny dovetail milling cutter but so far I've been unsuccessful in finding such a thing.
I'm thinking of maybe two real options. Grind a single point cutter from a bit of round HSS or grind a skinny cutter for the Douglas. If I chose the latter I could mount a rotary table on the shaper to "ensure" concentricity.:rolleyes: A possibly less successful option would be to have a go with some needle files ?
Included amongst the photos are a German eBay seller's photo of a similar base with the original clamp and a couple of photos of the Interapid dismantled and displaying a bit of Swiss complexity.
Any other recommendations will be appreciated.
Bob.
