Re: DRO issue "HEDs in hand"

OUCH, $85.00 each for the scales?? Guess I might not get more from
them.....


Here is the text from them when I ordered back in January:
They are 12.5 Cycles Per mm scales that you could piece end to end.
They produce 25CPMM when used with the Module. The price for the scale
is $49.00 each. The Module model # would be LM-25CPMM-3T. We do not
have Distributors in Canada as yet. You may order directly from the
factory here in Fallbrook CA. We accept Visa and MC.
The 12.5 [scales] are CPMM (Cycles Per Millimeter). When used with
the LM-25CPMM-3T Modules, which doubles the scale resolution, they
will produce 25 cycles per mm in quadrature or 0.01 mm resolution
after x4 edge detection

I wonder why the huge increase in the scale price.
