Guys,
I have had my G0752 lathe for about a year now and think maybe I would like a DRO now. I see this one from CDCO for about $450. It is two axis, but would it make sense to do three axis and also put a scale on the tailstock quill at the same time? I see lots of people using a digital caliper for the tailstock, which I might do until I get the DRO but it doesn't seem like you see much in the way of people doing a three axis DRO install on a lathe?
Here is a photo of the CDCO unit in their current flyer?
Comments welcome!
