Ed,

Here's a few photos. A better view from the top first:



From the right side, low view from the right side rear of the lathe:



From the left side, better showing the bracket holding the reader head:



A broader view from the lower right, where you can see how I moved the Z-axis scale about 4"/100mm toward the spindle to solve a problem:



A closer view of the brackets for the Z-axis scale. Though not visible from these views, the reader head bracket for the long scale had initially been fastened to the carriage's lower rear way clamp. I moved to using holes on the major carriage casting for greater rigidity and security.
