DRO for an old Myford

<< < (3/3)

Pete.:
I had to do similar with my milling machine. There was no other way around it without losing a heck of a lot of y-axis travel.

Jonny:
Far better way Xdevil but that will need serious bracing up.
Mines partially that way.

Assume op not ever going to use travelling steady or work large items. Swarf will collect in that channel no matter how well protected and rip o ring to shreds. Mine are two part scales from M Dro 2010 totally sealed.
Last concern is that 5 micron readout same as mine and not entirely repeatable, causes me plenty of grief to the extent don't trust at all when close to size required. You will find out when screw cutting to size no play.
