So I'm not sure what happened to my test indicator but the tip is not
vertical any longer.

I'm very careful with it and have only used it on the lathe. It is a
parallel model and the tip moves in the same plane as the dial face. I
noticed last night I went to use and the tip was not vertical. I dont'
think I bumped it or snagged it on anything. Is there an adjustment that
allows the tip to be repositioned at some other angle than vertical?
Most indicators (other than the Starrett Last Word) are adjustable for the
relative angle of the tip to the body - you just grab the arm and move it like
you're bending it where it connects.

The Last Word (and others like the Gem) have something of a saw tooth shape to
the attachment where you have to sort of pull it away from the body to change
the relative position.
