What DRO for a Myford

[Neil LickfoldParticipant @neillickfold44316]

I have a Myford S7 lathe with the Taper turning attachment mounted on the back. I don't use the taper turning attachment all that often, but still want that capability.

What recommendations or suggestions for a DRO system do people have?

Looking for a X and Y DRO setup if possible.

Thanks for any input.

Neil

Neil,
You can use a section of heavy U channel and a spacer to move the taper turning attachment away from the back of the lathe, making space in the channel for a DRO scale between the lathe and attachment,
Regards,
Nick
