thingiverse

8/18/15 Update I've added a new STL version with 'quick release.' This is perfect for users who only need the caliper attachment occasionally. The rendering shows the updates, but please note that the photos are of the old version. Click the like button if you enjoy it! This innovative device enables secure mounting of a caliper to your lathe without modifying the caliper itself. A protective shield is included to safeguard the operator's hand from injury and prevent damage to the caliper jaws while using the equipment. I'm deeply grateful to Bot719 for creating an exceptional bracket, which I've remixed here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:17970. Kudos to the original designers! After printing this device, I found it worked flawlessly. Stay tuned for photos and updates on other caliper brackets I'm currently working on.
