A friend of mine wanted direct read dials for his lathe he asked for help so I would need to make a dial with 200 spaces. I like to leave everything in the lathe till everything is done so using my indexing head was out of the question. So I went and purchased a cheap 10 inch plywood blade and made a spring loaded holder that would click off each tooth. The little brass pointer helped me keep track of each long line needed by marking every tenth tooth with a magic marker.
