Can Igaging DigiMag DRO scales be cut?

Which side of the scale did you measure from to make the cut, left side or right side. I have a couple scales to cut for my HF mill and lathe...

Hi DMLCV,
this is an old thread last replied oct 2013.
to answer your question, you can cut either end of the non-movable portion of the scale.
it's a magnetic material that the mobile part reads and converts to measurement, a linear encoder in essence.
 
Yep. I had to cut mine. No problems. Dremel took care of it easily.
