Wow!  :bow: :beer:

krv3000:
thats just showing off  :clap: just brill

Arbalist:
Although I don't strictly need a DRO on my mill I'd like one. Having looked at the options it was too expensive for me, the display being the single most expensive item. I hope someone comes out with a reliable off the shelf solution that uses a tablet. Will this system work with magnetic scales? I'd rather pay the slight premium for a more robust scale.

Just wanted to add my :thumbup: for this project. Very neat.

Have a look at http://www.yuriystoys.com/p/android-dro.html

To quote: "Quadrature controller is 100% pin-compatible with the Mixed Scale version, but uses firmware optimized for quadrature encoders, including 1 micron magnetic and glass DRO scales."

So the answer is yes.
