Best upgrade ever! This one was $39 from Amazon, was easy enough to install, is VERY accurate and extremely repeatable. Wishing I would have bought this years ago, but then they weren’t readily available or affordable to the consumer market. Happy day for my shop…. |

Nice. Did you upgrade the chuck too? |
