Excellent positional control but mediocre magnetic base.

While this device offers excellent display position control, it has one major drawback that spoils the full excitement. The problem is the magnetic base. It works very well on thick, high iron steel, but does not have enough magnetic force to stick firmly to many other steel substrates. For example, this system worked very well on my Jet Lathe, but would not attach securely to the base of my Wen Drill. However, if you can attach the magnetic base firmly, the fine adjustment provides excellent…

Pros
  • For 3/8" dial and dovetail displays
Cons
  • A few minor things

Inexpensive magnetic stand for pointer indicators.

A reasonably priced magnetic base that does a pretty good job of holding a dial gauge for the price. Pros: 1.

I tried the side of the fridge and it couldn't stand it and slowly slid down. But it worked great on all parts of my machine.2. The small size of the base keeps it out of the way most of the time.3. The arms are easily adjustable.4. Fits all watchfaces I have…

Pros
  • Base measures 1.2"W x 1.5"D
Cons
  • Crumpled

I work with plastic and metal models and often need small parts that need to be held while painting or gluing. Many tools are available for this purpose, but model makers need a range of tools that will hold the desired weight. Some tools can be clipped to the edge of a desk or table, but that's not always the best place. So we have a controlled magnetic base with universal swing arms and a handle attached to the base. The base has an on/off switch that looks like a power button; What it does…

Pros
  • Fits all AGD gauges and gauges
Cons
  • Very expensive
