i printed one off. worked like a champ...until i dropped my dial indicator.
 
I was all about this until I found one of the degree wheel kits on Craigslist for about 60 bucks, LOL Needed another dial indicator, anyhow for the lathe!!!
 
I've always used this one -> http://www.tavia.com/free_degree_wheel.html <- just because I remember the website. Spray glue it to some card board like from a 24 pack of refreshment. The best part is you can write directly on it.

I still got mine from a few years ago from that site. Perfect scaled down printout. I mounted mine to an old 45 record and enlarged the adapter hole. Nice and stiff. I use a coat hanger looped around a bolt for the pointer. Just mount firm, then rotate wheel tdc to pointer and don't disturb it again.
 
45? 33 1/3? Hell I don't know why I didn't think of that
glue it to a 78, they are much stiffer! Remember those? I dont...That red one in the video is bad ***, its huge and you can turn the crank with it like your steering a boat.
