x-axis dro for my vintage lathe.

This is a great video but when the embedded video is clicked (on iPad and regular Windows 7 pc) there is a right sided block ad that effectively crops the video.

I was able to view it only by pulling the YouTube link and going directly to YouTube.

Thanks for sharing the DRO with us. You did a great job!

Thanks for the nice comment.

Does the add overlap only happen with videos or pictures too. I know most people post pictures and a write-up, I prefer videos, if a picture is a thousand words, then a video has to be at least 10,000.

actually, after I clicked in the corner of the ad, and responded to the reason for wanting to get rid of the ad....and after waiting for 4 seconds or so.... the video opened up to full size.

Prior to that, it didn't show the right half of the video screen. Result was quite frustrating.
I understand that the site needs to pay for traffic etc, but pop up ads are annoying, even if eventually, you can make one disappear.

good work!! I have the stainless igagauging on my small mill, i had the igaging aluminum ones on my big mill(bridgeport) and put a std dro on it,Ill take the alumimun gauges/scales and put on my 3 year old 9x20 ...at some point, they should already be on there but somehow they arnt. I wish there was a cheep reader that read 2x for the cross slide so I didnt have to think.....sometimes thinking aint my strong suit...sometimes may be stretching it a bit...no a bit more than that..Ive still got to build a lead screw cover and way cover for the cross slide.and....yup lots of stuff I want to do...like add a 1 or 2 inch spacer under the tail stock&main spindl head thingy...I know I should of got a bigger lathe. ittle do for now.
