Does Shopsmith sell the slot mounted dial indicator that Nick used in a recent sawdust session to align the table to the blade?

OK, thanks. I feel stupid. I looked and looked and could not find it. But a search for "dial indicator" turned it up sure enough. Item# 555884

No problem! Don't feel stupid. I went for a couple of years thinking SS needed a way to micro adjust the table height. Then, I was at a TA and saw Doug Reid micro adjust his table with an adjustable collar! It was right there in the catalog, sure enough, but I looked right over it a hundred times b/c it didn't 'look' like something I needed! Now we got the vernier tape to boot!
