Hey Jim, there is a much simpler way to find center. Leave the chuck mount bolts loose, bring the spindle down, then use the three jaw chuck and clamp on the spindle. Tighten chuck to table. No indicating required. Usually will get you less than .001 doing it that way.
Thanks, Jeff!
It's centered pretty good now.
the needle hardly moves away from the white line it is pointing at. The chrome socket worked wonders...
and... I didn't want to lose my 'z' setting. it's perfect right now.

Incredible skills! I would love one of the Fuchs wheels for a paper weight on my desk. Maybe with a tire on it if possible. Let me know what it would run once you are in production.
Thanks,
Michael
