Linear Encoder pictures & design info.

Gentlemen,

In response to a couple of request's I've posted more information to the
milling machine section on my web page. Amongst other things are several
detailed pictures along with the original plans that I'd drawn up for the
linear encoders I built for machine control. I originally used these to run
the DRO shown further down the page. Now, however, these are used to
complete the absolute positioning feed back loop that accounts for slop.
Anywho, have a look see:

When you get there, click on the milling machine link in the left pane &
enjoy.
