    Cutting down DRO scale

    Thanks, I’ve chopped lots of extruded aluminum on a chop saw with a regular carbide tipped blade, I don’t think I want to use the bandsaw, I’ll probably mill a slot on both sides and then cut the glass.

    Cutting down DRO scale

    Awesome, thanks fellas, I think I’m going to do a test cut not to length to get a feel for it first. It’s for a bench top mill , so there’s plenty to play with.

    Cutting down DRO scale

    Hey Tom, did you ever post anything on shortening your dro? I can’t find anything. I just had some arrive from “Chinaexpess” and they were supposed to be cut to length, of course they’re not. Just curious how you did it, there’s a lot of videos of Yardbirds out there with pretty crude skill...

    Yes, I have done quite a bit of ice racing back in the day, like dirt track and speedway it really teaches throttle control! All that sideways action is a lot of fun.
