Now why wasn't that type of LCD display offered when I bought mine.
That looks perfect for my tired eyes.

I got the Z axis reader head bracket fabbed up before I went to bed this morning. Of course I had to power it up to see if it worked and it does. I still need to go back and indicate it in 2 axis to get it true, but is sure was cool watching the numbers change as I cranked the handle.You'll love the DRO.
It is a small space to fit a lot of hardware into but so far the only trimming I have to do is cutting about 1/2" of the chip guard off the x axis for the full length in order to clear the oilers on the back of the table. That would be a shame because I spent a bit of time today making brass extensions for the oilers so they would be accessible once the scale goes on. But I am pretty stubborn and if I go straight to a 1 shot lube system then I won't have to trim. So far I haven't seen any need to lose travel anywhere. But, I am not done yet. Time will tell.You have a small playing field, and will have to sacrifice some of that to get this stuff located. I have read many posts, on many boards, about how to discern where to give and where to refuse to give. I am curious about YOUR decisions about which axis, and which end of said axis, you choose to sacrifice to the digital gods.
Oh, yes they did. Was headed out the door to round up kids this afternoon so didn't get a chance to look at them until a few minutes ago when the wife asked, "What is that?". She had that tone so I had to show her it wasn't guns.Montana , did those books get there today ?
