What kind of magnetic stands do you guys find yourselves reaching for most often for your dial test indicators?

I have been wanting to order a decent holder (using a regular magnetic base for dial indicators sucks bad) with a fine adjustment.

I went on a limb and bought 4 item # 26039 from cdco. I would normally not suggest measureing devices from them, but these bases are killer for the $$ if they had push button mag releases it would be over the top. if you look, the tool holders are way cheap too. do not use their cutoff holder if you have deep parting to do as it does not extend as far as an aloris/phase 2 type, but for sub 2" parting and threading it works well.
