Back in the day I would have just eyeballed the tram, but I finally dropped $80 on a proper dial indicator.
It saved me a ton of time and scrap on a finicky aluminum job last week. Anyone have a favorite brand for these, or is it all pretty much the same now?

Used to think they were a waste of money until I had to set up a tricky run of parts. The right tool makes all the difference.

Disagree hard on this one, patricianguyen. I've seen too many shops blow their budget on fancy tools for one job that just sit on a shelf. You can usually get by with a good base set and some clever work holding. A lot of those special tools are just solving a problem you made by not planning the job right in the first place.
