A version to mount a mechanical gauge to the Print Rite DIY.
Advantage of this design is that it moves with the print head so it's easy to move over the plate. It also looks sciency cool.
Disadvantage is that it doesn't cover the whole print area, but i thing if you align 70% right then the rest is almost okay, even though the wobble in cheap glass plates is shockingly high.
It was designed for this type of gauge is a hook at the back:
