You're a good man, Ed.

I also have a ROC 1-6" set of mics, and with every gauge block I've tested them against the mics have been spot on. While, yes, it would be just lovely to have some nice brand name mics, These work great.

This could actually go in a few places: latest delivery, what did you do today, etc.

I have a two axis Shooting Star DRO on my mill, but I wanted something for the quill. So I ordered the iGaging setup, and it showed up yesterday.

Spent a few hours figuring out and fabbing the brackets, but it's there, and it works!

Rob, make sure your rectifier is rated at more than 380 volts. At an RMS voltage of 270, the peak voltage is 270 x 1.414 = 382 volts.
Mike

If you can't get one, make one.
