[CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] trav-a-dial - mechanical DRO

If any one else is interested in the Trav a dial, I have been offered $75 for
it. I am going to sell it friday.

I've been gone a few day, so getting into this thread a bit late.

A TravADial is like a dial indicator that reads the full travel of the
carriage. It is not digital. It can be used on a lathe or a mill. Every
lathe (4) in my Dad's shop has one and the Bridgeport without DRO has one
on both table travel directions. Extremely useful. They can be set to
zero at any location. IMHO, with the bracket and TravADial mounted, it may
be too much (big & bulky) for our mini- mills/lathes, but useful for larger
machines.

For photos of one, off and mounted on an Atlas 10", go to:
