Anyone from downunder using DRO's (calipers) on their lathe or mill?

Like the ones from
http://www.littlemachineshop.com/pro...=3091&category

If so where you get it from and what was the cost?

What's the quality like?

Based on the above link is the DRO and the digital display units good value
for money?

Or is there a better or cheaper way?


I bought one of these for an inspection fixtu

For $29 I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. It appears to be
the same as the $160 Littlemachineshop unit.
