This magnetic technology digital readout package fits all mini lathes from 7x10 to 7x16. Simply cut the long scale to fit.

This package includes what you need to put a DRO on most any mini lathe. It includes a two scales, two read heads, and a Bluetooth transceiver and all the mounting brackets and hardware.

You must also get an Android tablet for the display on this DRO. We recommend a 7" screen size, and the tablet must have Bluetooth capability. The specifications shown here show the capabilities of the software included with our Android tablet (PN 5513, available separately) and TouchDRO, and app you can download and install on your own tablet.

Chris Chris' Tips
Here are instructions for mounting the DRO on a mini lathe.

While we sell an Android Tablet with the DRO software installed, you can use most any Android tablet that supports Bluetooth with the Bluetooth DROs that we sell. 

Here's how to get going:

  1. On your Android tablet, go to Bluetooth Settings and Pair the DRO to your tablet. The name of the DRO is HC-06 or BT04-E. The PIN is 1234.
  2. Go to the Google Play Store and install Yuriy's Toys TouchDRO.
  3. When you launch TouchDRO and tap Connect in the upper right corner.
