Here is a Starrett No. 657AA magnetic base with a Starrett No. 196 dial indicator set that are in very good used condition. These tools have been used, so there are a few minor cosmetic imperfections, but nothing that will hinder their usefulness. So there are no suprises when you receive your tools, I point out some of these imperfections in the last two photos. The previous owner scribed something on the side of this magnetic base and then removed it. I camouflaged it with a black paint marker. I believe that it looks a lot better. Also, this indicator has a dent on the side. It still works like new. Please don't let these imperfections detract from what is otherwise a very nice used set of precision tools. The magnet turns "on" and "off" easily and "sticks" solidly to any smooth steel surface. Everything slides around easily and locks down tight wherever you want it to. The Starrett dial indicator set is also in excellent condition. The plunger moves in and out easily with no hesitations and always returns to "0".  Smoothly!  The clear plastic lens has some scratches on it but is still easily readable. All of the accessories are included. These accessories allow you to set up your indicator in a variety of different ways. All of these tools are kept in its original wooden protective case. It has done a very good job of protecting these tools. It has a lot of wear on it from doing its job. It opens easily, latches shut, and holds everything securely. It will continue to protect your tools for many years to come. Everything will work perfectly for you! I guarantee it! This base and indicator have a vertical reach of about 16" and a horizontal reach of about 8". These American made tools are ready to go back to work immediately and would make a great addition to any precision toolbox. Please look at all the photographs as they can describe the condition of these tools much better than I can. Thank you for looking and buy with confidence because your satisfaction is very important to me.
