Hi Jon,
I've just finished building up a XYZ DRO system for my mill. Quite a challenge but satisfying. Built from scratch with circuit boards from a friend of mine. Milled the display panel from a solid 25mm thick chunk of alloy. Encoder blocks milled from alloy as well.
If I can sort out how to stick photos on here I will post a few.
Cheers
Graham
