Hi all!
I would like to share this job with my engravers friends because it was a funny one and also very usable and an improvement to my lathe. I am getting older and my eyes are not what used to be and also I am not a very good machinist, so this kind of helps works quite well for me.
I know that some of you are machinist and also all of you are very well with your hands, so any of you can get advantage of these cheap Chinese calipers (capacitive type) for alternative uses.
I did the shears stop five years ago and it was really great, so I spent the past weekend doing these DROs (digital read out) for my new lathe.
Have fun!

PS. I can resist the temptation to add the scrap picture!
