    Magnetic DRO.

    I bought this DRO on aliexpressvwith the intention of fitting it to my lathe.* Changed my mind and I'm now fitting it to my mill.* I have the X axis fitted and a bracket made for the readout, tomorrow I'll mount the readout and look at fitting the Y feed axis.

    It's actually for woodworking as it's magnetic.* But it was cheap, so I bought it and fitted the magnetic strip inside an aluminium U section chanel.* *It works well.* If the swarf does prove a problem - it was cheap!

    I'll post some pics once I've fitted the Y axis sensor.
