DRO Instructions

[trott]

I am new to using a lathe. Are there any instructions posted for the use of a standard DRO? If that makes sense? Trott.

G'day there are a lot of good you tube videos on fitting a DRO to a lathe and most of them explain how it works pretty well.
here are a couple

Trott,
Are you looking for TouchDRO specific instructions or any DRO?

A big part of the reason to spend more on a dro is how good the support, documentation is( typically more expensive, better documentation). Seems like dro pros offers good help. https://www.dropros.com/DRO_PROS_Digital_Readout_Videos.htm . shows: sub datum memory, line hole position, bolt hole cricle, arc machining, etc.

Pacifica,
Not to sound grumpy, but in case this was not clear from the forum title, this is a "Sponsored" forum for TouchDRO. I'm OK with general DRO questions, but please take promoting DRO Pros to the general discussion forum.
Also, as a small correction; DRO Pros have great sales and marketing.
