[QUOTE="Fitch, post: 370804, member: 19372"] DRO = Digital Read Out. It shows the position of the machine in thousandts of an inch. It's just like having a digital caliper attached to the carriage and cross slide of your lathe. I don't have one on either of my lathes but I do have one on my mill. It's the handiest accessory I ever bought for my mill. My buddy, the gunsmith, has a Grizzly DRO on his chambering lathe and another on the tail stock. Watching him use that I have put it at the top of my list of things to get for the shop. There are lots of manufacturers of them. This is a link to the DRO's sold by Grizzly.
