I've found a 3-axis DRO package with magnetic scales for roughly $600USD... about half of what DRO-PROs charge! Here is the 3-axis kit: http://bit.ly/2r5YGNH

It is being shipped from UK tomorrow and will be posting install pix.
It comes with pre-cut scales at 350,450 and 750 mm. Turns out magnetic scales are (alleged) easy to cut so this will cover the 5500 and have some left over. You also get some pretty beefy cast AL brackets (which I don't use).
 
I put the link up and it IS to a valid UK company. Just tried the link and it goes right to the UK company. I called them on the phone today (6/7) to get a confirmation on shipping and got a live Brit to talk to me. I suppose it could be a shell company - any Brit could be hired... but would DEF like to see some REAL HARD evidence that M-DRO products are made in Libya.

Would like to add an American Company also sells the products:
http://www.sra-measurement.com -- but guess that really doesn't prove much.

Just to cover the possibility that Bitly screwed up the copy of the URL - here is the full link to the product I bought:
