the mitutoyo needs a back macing for it as it came in a holding frame thats the black thing you can see in the last pic so ther is no Mont on the back to a tach it to a stand

That black frame is typical of what is seen when an indicator is used on a dial bore gage to protect it from banging around on the work bench. If that indicator came from a bore gage as I suspect, it would have only a plain, flat back with no lug or anything.

You must have a plethora of indicators now Bob!

yep fat back i don't have that meney as i give sum of them a way
RE: not a nuther D.T.I refit - Tony Wells - 05-02-2013
If I have a flat back, and I think I do, would you like me to send it your way? I don't know what the post would cost, or whether you want it as a flat back, or would rather hunt down a lug back for it, but give it some thought. I wouldn't mind sending it if you want it.
