Locally there is a used Mitutoyo digital readout from a vertical boring mill. Looks in good shape and poster says it’s in good shape.
Its an older unit.
My question is, am I further ahead with a good used one, or order an off shore unit that is less expensive?
My DRO on my boring mill only works in Y. I can’t seem to be able to get Xand Z to work. I have cleaned the glass scales but the rubber sealing them is falling apart. The numbers just flicker like it’s trying to read but doesn’t change.The Mitutoyo is a two axis with the right dimensions or close enough.
Thoughts.
