Brigeport Mill for the Garage - Part 5 - New DRO scale and alignment

The old Sargon DRO scale was not salvagable, so I ordered a replacement from ...

 Here is the replacement X-Scale installed on the back of the table. I had to drill and tap new mounting holes, since the holes are nowhere near the old Sargon ones. The old scale was not salvagable, so I bought a replacement, which also increased the X resolution from 10 microns to 5.


The image below shows the debris shield installed over the scale
