Shoulder bolt is garden variety hardware in mcmaster and other machine
tool catalogs,
Shank is machined, end threaded and with cap allen driven heads; a
million sizes.
Has no bearings associated with it.
Traps lifts on fence and table top. Lifts are slotted, and slots hook
on the bolt, trivia.

Dial indicator monitors micro fence adjustments, 1.00" worth. It does
butt up against a round stop.
If the stop is located on the same center as the spindle on the dial
indicator it reads quite well and to the nearest .001", not difficult
to do with medium drilling and indexing skills. Can spin and still
read the same, flat stop would not.
Why round? Balances the hardware ensemble, it is part of the design
and it works.
Thank you for your interest.
