First project: DRO mount

Looks like magnetic scales, what brand?
 
Ditron DMR200. Sorry for the late reply
 
Made some more progress, broke some stuff and learned a few things!

Y axis brackets and mount for the magnetic tape:

Got a fancy new fly cutter and then broke it 30 minutes later...

Cut a chunk of aluminum with a hacksaw to make the read head mount:

Things learned:
1. carbide is brittle
2. I need a bandsaw
