All done and dusted now and I have a working 3 axis DRO on the Warco WM16B mill.

There is basically one manufacturers of these DROs and scales, with dozens of OEMs putting their own stickers on them. You’ll notice that they all look exactly the same.

Likes and comments (or interactions) are how the KZfaq algorithm chooses videos to suggest to people. Just binge watched the whole dro set. It’s caused me to go back to drooling over mills again 😁... one day! Well done as always Ade! -Joe

Decided to take the plunge and get the WM16B mill. Seems to be the best in its class for the budget. Decided to fit a DRO myself. I think they way over charge for theirs.

Firstly Ade, a very good final part to the DRO series, as I was wondering how you were going to do the Y axis. Ade I am really surprised that you only have that many subscribers! You are so entertaining I thought you would have had a great many more. I subscribed the very first video I watched as I recognised that you were a trained craftsman from the off and that I could learn from you. So come on guys and gals subscribe if you want to learn from a superior British toolmaker of the old style. ( I was going to say English toolmaker but I suspect that the Welsh Red Dragon may have objected lol )

Thank's Mate . Means a lot . I guess I am not pushy enough and many people like the fast forward type videos . I do try to explain everything including my random thought process . Thanks again Ade.

ADES WORKSHOP you are welcome mate! I've just been on Warco's web site, can't remember what you said about lost cross slide travel with DRO fitted but spec on the Warco 16 is 175 mm cross travel. Cheers mate!

Hey Adrian.....How happy are you with the mill itself. I have space for a 45 series mill but your mill is really impressive! It runs really smooth cuts from what i've seen! That is a 30 series isn't it? or a 20 series? I am in Convict land otherwise known as Australia. If I go a 30 series mill I can afford a few more goodies for it and I won't be making to make a living of it! Any comment? Keep up the good work!
