OK, next off-topic diversion from the diamond grinder and regarding the Chinese DRO.
I need to devise and make mounting provisions for the scales and the display. Because it was cold in the shop last night, instead of measuring all of the parts and the areas of the mill to which they will be attached, I relaxed in my warm living room.
From the fairly complex display symbols and the length of the operator's manual that accompanied the DRO, I thought that I might as well start reading the manual and get a head start on using the DRO. After about five seconds I realized that the only way I'll learn how to use the device is by experimenting.
Here's a scan of one page - and it is typical of ALL of the pages, LOL:
I sincerely hope that you can read all of this, starting with "the god of the earth..." because it is HIGHLY entertaining
