I just got off the phone with Monarch, I'm looking for the most reliable way to indicate wear on a 10EE.
So I asked them which parts of the bed were ground to parallel tolerance.

They're response is that the Roller Gib ways and the non-bearing middle flats were not ground to the same tolerances that the flat bearing and inverted v ways were.

Therefore indicating off these cannot be relied upon to tell the truth.

They also said that if you are getting strange readings then the saddle may be riding on the tailstock flat and that you should relieve it so that the saddle once again rides on the inverted v ways.

They suggested the best and really only way is to use a test bar and indicate off that.
