Thanks for the verification - I`ll be giving it a go shortly and see how it works out! I have fitted my little X2 mill with the fignoogle DRO layout and so I`ll be using that - however they are only cheapo DRO bars so I`m not entirely sure how accurate it will be. I hope it is as accurate as a RT.... I`ll let you know how it goes. Chris |

I used trig/ pythagoras almost daily, up to retirement. Those figures jumped out at me! :bugeye: They`re right! You never forget...... Like riding a bike...... :thumbup: David D |
