Gday Ades, I can see myself revisiting this video when I go to put a dro on my mill, I like the way you have kept the rubber flap in place, great job mate, take care, Matty

the profile is made by squeesing allmost molten aluminium through a die like toothpaste out of a tube so it makes sence that the cast part isnt perfectly straight by how mush does the dro rule in the back of the bed limits the travel along the x axis (seems to hit the mast at the far end )

Very nicely done. I like how you've managed to keep the rubber chip guard and ensure it keeps swarf off the read head too. Look forward to next installment.

I'm inspired to tackle the X axis now after struggling with the Z first, which was most important to me, depth of cuts. a little 100mm scale for the Y is on the way. I'll revisit your DRO vids a couple times as I do the work haha. thank you! (mine's a Grizzly G8689 mini mill)

Very clever work Ade. Good luck with adjusting the Gibb from the back , covered it with the bracket, lol. Dont suppose it will matter for a while. Really enjoying the videos, keep up the good work. PS its nice to see that the mill is man enough to take some decent cuts. Mal.

Nice work! Design really is .625 of the battle 😊. Was surprised how much material your little mill can hog off, a bit of a beast, eh! Was a little concerned about your close proximity of brush and endmill, guess I have my reasons 🤣. Thanks for the share, Ade! Cheers!

Nice job that Ade. Also noticed you got yourself some of those paint pots and flux brushes too. I had a disaster with my Warco WM240 this week as the motor gave up, can't believe they fit such crap motors to them. Turns out the new models now come with induction motors and have a much bigger power rating too. Gonna have to upgrade to brushless, so some research and web surfing is on the cards.

Is there any issue with differential expansion coefficients between Aluminum and cast iron *possibly* causing distortion in the mounting system, *maybe* affecting alignment or positioning of the DRO?

Hi. Nice video. Please can you pause when you show parts? I need to see the opened read head but the brief picture you show is too short. You skipped putting the head sensor back in the channel. Aagh!

Ok next time. if I do it again. I is really easy to put the head back in though . it is sort of spring loaded and it just slips in the end . simple . Cheers Ade.
