Is this DTI ok for the price?

Do you generally work in imperial or metric? I suppose if you're just using it for centring it doesn't really matter.

Looks similar to a metric one I got from them - works fine - not as smooth as my other one but a quarter of the price so quite happy.

Well I'm easy FFreddie,willwork with both but yeah your right its just for centeing. :)

Thats the one I have, its fine for the job... but you'll find a finger type rather than a plunger type more useful. Ideally you'd have both types.
