Finished up Z Column rod base adjuster to be used with an indicator and the column crank. The PM 932 PDF mill does not have a knee . The column moves up and down with a Z axis motor (in rapid) but also has a hand crank with no way of incrementing measurement. Once the column/ tooling is set up in lowest z position . This rod will be locked into place to zero indicator. Than you can use the manual crank to thousandths of an inch. The idea works great it can remain fixed as it clears everything on the column. After use you can simply slide the main adjustment rod in up position out of the way
