My DRO install

[mike-sid]

Ken, and all, That's what I'm going to do. Either blocks or modify some of the brackets that came with the kit to mount the scale to the base facing away from the spindle, so to the left to keep swarf out of the scale and mount a bracket to the knee which will attach to the read head. I got my inspiration from this picture, from the DRO Pro's site.   Hope I explained it correctly. This picture shows the scale/read head mounted "front to back" with the scale opening facing back. I plan to mount mine "right to left" with the opening facing left. Make sense? sound good?
