Need A Dro And Lube System

[Sendit]

My DRO crapped out and I've been looking at a few Most of my experience friends have Accurite or Newall. Kinda surprised it lasted as long as it did. Would like to make the change to magnet and maybe 3 axis for the knee.

Lube system, what is a good brand? I have a new machine I'm picking up this weekend and it's been a while since I bought one. I just haven't been in the "know" in while. The threads i pulled up were 3-4+ years old.

I have been eyeing this DRO for my machine. All I have read is good.

What crapped out on your DRO and what kind is it ???
If it was the display, you may be able to save yourself some $$$ by using the Yuriy"s Toys controller and App with your current scales.

If you want a new DRO system with magnetic scales, DroPros (http://www.dropros.com/) and Renishaw (http://www.rls.si/products/linear-magnetic-encoders) are two that are supposed to be good.

In the past year I replace scale and encoder. Now both went, so time to get the Chinese crap out of here (I'm a college kid). lol

I just bought an received this oil pump for my "new to me" BP for $62. It is made well too.

So that oiler is a replacement, and it assumes the tubing is already in place. How would you go about installing a system if there isn't one, on my Rockwell, for example?
