Any new progress on the lathe DRO installation?

Ed,

I've been using my lathe a lot and the DRO is great. I never solved the problem of locking the cross slide but I have devised a way to add a lock which I will eventually add. I'm still glad I didn't put the scale on left side of the carriage. I decided not to gather my posts into a PDF since there were enough doubts about how I installed the cross slide scale. I don't want to steer anyone down the wrong path.
