DTI Right angle lever

[Rod AshtonParticipant @rodashton53132]

Hi – Could anyone offer a source of supply for one of the right angle pivoting arms, that transfer the movement of a plunger type DTI through 90 deg. Used to have one but lost it??

I wouldn't have thought it would be difficult to make one

If you want to use it as a comparator then it is not too hard. If you want accurate figures the two lever arms need to be the same length at all angles. This makes it a trickier problem.

Issue 1 of MEW had an excellent four-page article on that very subject.

I made one years ago, its a rather rough and ready bit of scrap iron, but it works.
