    Anchor Designs installs the bolt on Myford DRO kit to an ML7 lathe

    Anchor Designs have posted a video on their YouTube channel, detailing how they installed one of our Myford-dedicated DRO readout kits.  

    This particular customer is installing the bolt-on DRO system - this version removes the need for any drilling or modification to the lathe when installing the cross-slide reading head and encoder to the bed.

    This is a non-sponsored, independent review - watch as he installs the kit step by step and gives his verdict.

    Part no: DRO-012-L72-MM
