Re: Xcut DRO Update


 

I designed and 3D printed a housing for the folks that wanted the Faima DRO unit on their rip fences. I guess I can supply those, It uses a couple of nuts to lock into the housing and a rubber o-ring under it to apply some rotational friction so you can aim the unit as you desire. I don't really want to get involved in making the bracket to hold the read head as the Felder housings vary quite a bit depending upon machine and year. It's a simple bracket, but a bit too much design and develop to be able to charge maybe $30 for the bracket. It would be different if i had every variation on hand to do the work... but that's not going to happen.

Brian,

I¡¯m looking for a DRO to install on the rip fence of the K700S. ?Something that sits on the main casting hub of the rip assembly. ?

I have the heavy duty Felder flip stops with DRO already. ?Love that setup! ?

Thx,

Wade

You guys do realize that Proscale or Imran's contraption do nothing to get rid of the crappy flipstop that Felder uses and isn't square. I am also not sure I would want to trust the flimsy 3D printed brackets that I'm seeing here to hold the electronics. One good bump with a board will have the units in multiple pieces... of course if the STL is provided you can always print another, consider it a consumable.

I just went to the Proscale website and noticed this for Felder K700 with 1800mm crosscut fence:

Accurate technology Inc. makes great DRO¡¯s!

I¡¯m hoping one day they will develope a kit for the K700S. ?

Andrea,

By the way, Proscale does already have a kit for the Minimax SC4:
