I purchased from eBay a slim type, and this was the manual they had that covered 3 other types. (See attached pdf).Any one have a comparison of the SINO brand SLIM scale and how much more “slim” they maybe?
So I just purchased from an ebay seller a 1 micron pair of scales and LED DRO readout. Unfortunately they sent 5 micron resolution scales. The seller wants to send me just the reader head to fix this. I thought the glass scale in conjunction with the reader determined the resolution.<snip>
I hope this will be helpful for the folks who are deciding between glass and magnetic scales. If I missed anything, please feel free to ask questions.

I did a short write up on another forum about cutting glass scales. I can dig it up if anyone is interested.In a previous article on cutting glass scales, the author used Plasticine modeling clay on the glass scale to dampen any vibrations that might cause cracking.
