Yeah, familiar with those. I didn't go into enough detail. I want to use
the rack for positive quick adjustment, but be able to make fine
adjustments, with a dial indicator to arrive at final dimension.
Idea is to be able to calibrate back gauge, then be able to quickly
shear or bend to size. Well, on the finger brake it's not so cut and
dried, but you get the picture.

I believe DiAcro uses the quick adjusting nuts stock, but I didn't get
back gauges with either unit.
