Fascinating, though, as you pointed out, handle on the wrong side. Your height gauge works just fine, though I thought of a tiny laser measure sitting on the cross-slide and shining up to the bottom of the milling bit. Probably no such thing, a project for another day perhaps.
Always looking for projects Ralph! I’m sure I’ll come up with another way of doing it. I need to get DRO fitted to the mill head, that might help! Thanks for the feedback 👍🏽
