Others will disagree, but I refuse to buy any precision instrument from Horrible
Freight.  Their quality control is just too poor, and the risks of having an
inaccurate tool too great.

Enco almost always has a cheap 1" travel dial indicator set on sale, with a
magnetic base and a set of points, for under $20.  It's still not a Starrett or
Mitutoyo by any means, but mine has served well for many years, and seems to be
accurate at least to the limit of my ability to test it.

Currently on sale for $18.95.  Go to
http://www.use-enco.com
and look under "Measuring tools" in the "Hot Deals" section.
