All minor details..
You can divide using changegears or make a degree wheel by drawing one in Drafsight, printing it off say 6" diameter, glue it to a disc mount that onto the spindle and use a pointer. Mark off the divisions using a sharp lathe bit and stamp the numbers.
Or you could find a wheel for another lathe with the correct number of divisions and make a hub for it.
Taking my favourite route - ie the path of least resistance, I was hoping to modify an existing micrometer to fit the shafts.
Or I make much use of the boxed micrometer gauge which came with the job lot
