I wanted to mount a dial indicator to the X-axis bars to make sure my bed was as level as I could get it.
The dial indicator I got isn't anything fancy: http://www.harborfreight.com/1-inch-travel-machinists-dial-indicator-623.html
Key design points:
* can't put something between bars because of belts
* use print bed surface for flat edge of mount
* make dial mount reusable
I got a 1/4 in bolt to mount the dial. Note that the dial mount allows for slop in dial indicator's mounting hole.
