    Check out their monthly specials, sometimes they have them for around $20.00 with a magnet. I like MSC's quality compared to others.

    It's not what you take away, it's what you are left with that counts!

    Check out any machine shop auctions in your area. We have boughten many indicators at auctions for $2.00 ea. We have even had some luck with getting some good ones out of the bunch. Just a thought!
    Just a good ol' boy, never meanin' no harm.
