How To Use An Edge Finder - In The Workshop. The 20mm Collet arrived and was not bored very deeply so that will need some attention. In this video I show the principle of using the Optical Edge Finder and take a look at refilling a "Pica" Deep Hole Marker Pen.

Thank you a ton for this vid for it resolves a bunch of HOWTOs (regarding the Edgefinding) in a very clear manner! 🇺🇸😄

Even though this video is mostly for beginners, like me, learning about precision measuring devises is extremely important. Also knowing how to zero in the machinery is important. Your explanations and demonstrations go a long way to make, some what, difficult adjustments much easier to understand, Great video, as always. ;-)

Just a couple of things. On the collet you may find the material too hard to bore it out. Good ones are usually heat treated and a ground finish but with ebay you often take a chance on quality. Also before edge finding it is wise to rotate the edge finder in the spindle to make sure it is first running true.

Electronic edge finder need work in low rpm for more precision.....roundout.

I think with the Pica marker pens, you can pull out more of the felt material from the end.

They are nice but i'd rotate it just in case it is a little out in runout.

I thought about trying one of these but honestly, I’m starting to go off of battery powered devices and going back to analog. The batteries never fail just when you need them and don’t have any replacements.

I fully agree, I have a battery powered Micrometer and a battery powered Digital Calliper and every time I want to use them the batteries are flat. I have gone back to the mechanical type.

I have one of these, had it a while. They are good, however the ball doesn't always sit perfectly central in the bottom, it can be slightly to one side. What I do now is rotate it through 90d and recheck. If I still find the dro shows different readings I will keep turning 90d. However I much prefer to use this over the traditional ones.

To be honest it's probably not going to get a lot of use in my Workshop ...... I just wanted to show it, as a kind viewer sent it to me.
