I'm looking for some advice from all the machinists out there, or anyone else that knows anything about dial indicators! I've been looking at the TS Aligner Jr setup for my shop. The basic unit comes with a "China" brand indicator. I can get a premium one like Starrett, Mitutoyo, ar B&S for about $70 more. They have several midrange choices that I have never heard of...Fowler, Tecloc, Peacock, and SPI. These are about half the extra charge. Are these any good? Should I spring for the high end model? I have always been a believer in the adage "You get what you pay for", but don't like spending more than I need to. Thanks for your advice.
