Update 2022-08-07: I added two new versions that clamp to both rails. I also added a bit more mass to the mount.

I have two .stl files for you.
1. Dial indicator mount for a cheap standard indicator
2. A clamp for the other side of the mount, or you can print two to create a stop.

You may need to remove the back of the indicator and replace rotated 90 degrees.

You will need some M4 x 20 hardware for clamping and M6x20 to mount the dial indicator.

You will need to drill the hole on the mount or the top clamp to allow M4 to pass. I did not leave any clearance to allow you to customize where you want the bolts.
