I'm trying to attach a 6" scale DRO (a Mitutoyo Digimatic) to my BP clone
Kondia.

I've got the 6" Mitutoyo quill DRO on my Kondia variable speed BP clone.
IIRC, the only
thing I had to do that was not in the instructions was to mill a shallow
slot in the back of the
supplied aluminum mounting bar. The slot is for clearance for the sliding
block on the quill feed
mechanism. Only need to be .050" deep or so, or you could shim the mount
block. It binds
if you don't do one or the other.
