    I agree. I was getting frustrated using a normal indicator. Decided I could put a coaxial indicator to good use. Take time and dial them in tight. Should only have to set center for each holder 1 time per holder adjusting nut and setting x. Then I can pop in any tool and set z offset. Besides I have no less then a dozen ways to indicate why not add one more. I like new strategies to limit frustration and get it done.

    Going to need a mt2 er 20 collet holder or some other.

    I sent a link earlier (https://www.amazon.com/Collet-Holder.../dp/B08CRM1PK8) for an ER20/MT2 that is supposed to be in stock.

    thanks for link!
    I guess amazon was being stupid when I searched. I did same search and 4 others popped up that are in stock!
    Amazon filters people to certain buyers and hides others. Then your link unlocked the filter and now I see those other vendors.

    By the way coaxial indicator was well worth the money. took all of a minute to indicate center. The front view and slide dial markers help big time .
