    Very fine explanation. Thank you!
  • @incubatork
    Fantastic layman's explanation of ABS and INC, another good use if you have both sets of measurements on a drawing is to cross check between both. If your working using INC, before say drilling a hole is to do a quick check in ABS to make sure the measurements coincide.

    SDM, Yes please, and other functions less used. This video has helped me great, many thanks. 👍😎

    Got my first dro , sino, the Chinese manuel sucks and I'm not a wizard but not stupid either so I'll be watching your videos over and over. I appreciate the time you've taken and you explain very clearly. THANKS FROM OHIO.

    Great instructional video Jon Thanks for taking the ( considerable) time to script, shoot, and edit the vid. Regards Robert
  • Good instruction Jon, it may be worth doing a follow-up on calibrating these DRO,s using gauge blocks

    I left a similar comment with Joe Pie: please get yourself a lav mic. they don't cost much, but they will make your voice sound so much better than the in-camera mic across the room

    I watched about half of this, then went back to watch This Old Tony's video on DRO's. Came back here and I have to say a much clearer explanation of whats going on. I look forward to seeing you covering off more on DRO's as I think that there is far more you can do with them than people suspect. I'm in the happy, or unfortunate position of of having 3 machines with DRO's on them, all 3 being different manufacturers. I need to get my head around the old Heidenhain system on my new to me mill, still to be set in position.
