    Also referring to Jonathan's point about where the measurement was made, I applied the force at the end of the spindle, with the collet nut removed, and had the DTI on the other side right at the extreme of the spindle shaft. I removed the collet nut because being slack, there was play in it.
    If this thread is going to be a repository for peoples measurement then maybe a set of rules should be made to ensure everyone tests in the same way.
