Dial Test Indicator (DTI) Holder

I designed and built this DTI holder for quick-change tool posts on metal working lathes, saving me money by not needing expensive metal tool holders to house my digital indicator. I printed two outer shells with 15% infill in PLA plastic, finding it strong enough as long as I remember not to overdo the locking arm. While PLA does flex under high clamping force, I don't expect it to shatter into a thousand pieces anytime soon. For its purpose - measuring how far off center a part is from the lathe's center - this holder proved robust and reliable, and I hope you find it just as useful.
