DRO

[larry5061]

I have a LMS mill & thinking about DRO. What is an economical dro that is reasonably priced? What are you using?

Some of us have been using the iGaging DROs. They don't do all the bolt-circle calculations, but really makes life easier. Probably the cheapest way to add DROs.

I had a LMS mill for a bit... i put on the igaging scales, and it worked a treat. Now as a disclaimer i was never "gnat's ass" with it (or is that cat's ass...?), but that could be me more than the scales. Chris from LMS is very helpful, and might even send a drawing of how they mount hem. I made some aluminum pieces and attached it without too much trouble. never took a picture though (

I'm using DRO-PRO. I've been happy with it,and they were patient with me while I ask a lot of questions.Nice people to do business with.
