Default My new toy has arrived... smiling!

DROs are great and all. I’ve found them best at measuring on z axis. I always got messed up cutting tapers with the attachment using a dro and compensating for backlash. I always found myself using the dials for tight tolerances on diameters. Mounted Dial indicators are far more trustworthy for tight work

But boy if you got a +/- .003 on an od you can hammer out sizes like no ones business
Most of all Congrats!! you’ll find its greats and limits fast
