Is this neat, or junk?
Does anyone understand it?

Hi Darren, Not seen that system before :scratch:. I use the Shumatech Dro on my small mill, It works very well with chinese scales. http://www.shumatech.com/

They both look worth looking into! Suppose the only difference is you're getting 1 display which can be put in a convenient place with a bit more functionality through the computer / control box.

Ummm.... welllll... sort of. :scratch:
I do not know if the scales transmit the position continuously or just when they are moved, if the former then it would really be quite easy but the later would be more of a challenge.
I have thought of doing something like that myself and the only reason why not has been the chronic dearth of tuits. :coffee:
There is a project fermenting in my gray matter to combine a digital scale and a DC motor controlled by DCC (model train) digital controller chips, need more tuits.

Thats a bit flash using a iphone as a DRO display :clap:
