The other day I took my micrometer stop apart for cleaning and to take some measurements because I was going to make a bracket for a dial indicator like I've seen others have. After taking it apart I decided I could just make a new spindle for it that would double as a dial indicator holder. Here are some pictures of what it looks like.

I made a brass plug with a oring on it to put in the hole when i'm not using a indicator.

Here's one with a 3" travel indicator.
