Hello

I just purchased a used compumill from ebay, and I am in the process of getting it setup(install,wiring,and tooling). I was wondering if anyone offers a dro type kit to keep track of the position on the knee. I would like something like the quill kits that are offered(digital caliper type), but with 14-15" of travel.

Thanks
Joe

they do make those caliper type in longer lengths. Dunno how useful, I think the error might be large from the column over to the table

Bridgeport used 2 types of castings on the S2STD. One was made in China. No lie, it smelled different. Just a fact. But I am trying to remember which was easier to put a knee DRO on. If my memory serves me correctly there was not a single good surface to use that was parallel to the ways in two planes. Look at that carefully. Also the caliper type may be hard to read once you manage to get it mounted.
