Magnetic tool holder

Watched Nick using the dial indicator to set planner blades. Have the dial indicator but would like the magnetic holder. Anyone know where to find it?

I am not certain but I think that what you are referring to is a devise that was presented during Sawdust Session #6. It is a jig that you have to build yourself and uses the dial indicator(s).

I hope this is what you are looking for.

Hi there George & Rock! I can't understand how that magnetic base from HF would be used. Can you please post a photo? No need for a verbal instruction- just a photo.

Thanks!
