That's brilliant Brian,
Way more elegant than my solution, & i'm sure more accurate due to where you have the reader head etc. mounted.
Imran,
There is a repeatability issue as far as taking the hood off and putting it back on, at least how i have mine set up. I was just looking at Brian's photos, and that looks like a way better way of doing it. (Might have to find the time and copy it) I am not concerned with whether the DRO reads the same or not when remounting the hood though, as i primarily use the DRO by zeroing it in to a particular projection of the cutterhead, then adjusting the hood according to that. I don't use it everytime i use the shaper, but when i do use it, it does make setup faster than without it.
Regards,
Bryce
