Wandering through Harbor Freight with the 30% off coupon in hand and saw these. For $4.89 had to get it even though I have no idea when or if I'll ever need to drill a hole the size of a human hair. But it's in the toolbox now should that day ever come.

Found this when looking for (and finding) a DRO add-on for my DW 735 planer. I have the Wixey WR510 DRO in hand. I also found this mounting kit from Katya Ironworks and am wondering if anyone else has tried it or has thoughts on what value it brings. Ideas...
