Any number of obstructions are making mounting to the rear (tailstock)
side a real challenge while the front (spindle) side would be
relatively easy. Is it considered a no-no to mount the scale on the
front side where it'll be more exposed to swarf damage etc?




Yes..and no....
If you mount it on the headstock side, make sure to make a nice, clean,
low-profile STEEL cover for it to prevent damage.
