Started on the DRO install while the wife has the sprog away at her mothers.
Old one off , might try flogging it on fleabay but with only one scale its pretty useless and it didn't work on my new DRO , so prob obsolete protocol.
new one on bolted to the old bracket
and shims made up for the x-axis , 5.55mm wide so I can bolt the slider directly to the saddle and the scale directly onto the cross slide. Just found out my only m5 tap is a cheap n nasty one and don't fancy using it on my bed so ordered up a new one.
