Poor mans DRO
Finally got around to finishing my poor mans DRO. A couple of cheap digital Calipers, made a couple of custom parts and a few magnets, and it works surprisingly well. Best part is with the manufacture of a few more adapter brackets I can pretty much use these on any axis and the lathe and the Drill/Mill
