    Great video quality and sound. Well produced. Happy to have been helpful in the DRO installation. I'll be doing that to my Logan lathe in a couple of months.

      My buddy Wayne! We grew up in the same part of Texas but never met until much later. He can fix or build almost anything! I am so lucky to have such good friends!

      My next project is to replace the cross slide nut!

      Will you make one or do you have a source for new?

    About 4:43 it looks like a screw with a nut coming out of the scale frame to the diagonal brace? How is that brace mounted to the scale?

    Awesome. Looks like you may have removed the internal glass scale to drill the scale and add the support bracket? I need to do this for my Cincinnati 12x 42. Please advise. Subscribed.

      We did not remove the glass scale. The mounting brackets are separate. Not sure if if this answers your question. The instructions that came with the kit were, actually, pretty good. Please email me if you need more info and I will try and help. Thanks for your comment!
