Hi

I'm in the process of fitting my homebrewn DRO to my -I call it a-
lathe. As that lathe is not one of the biggest, there is no place left
for digital scales right out of the box. So I had to modify an existing
digital caliper and to convert it to a nice little ruggedized digital
scale.

Out came a scale 110mm long, 22mm wide, 10mm thick and a travel of 50mm.
That steel case has all in it that makes a digital scale. The couppling
strip and the PCB from the caliper. The PCB needed some hefty
modification to get that small and lost it's LCD during that process.

I have described all that he

Enjoy!
