Mini Lathe Tailstock DRO

Do you want a DRO on your tailstock for under £10.00, then this video will help you. I've found just recently when doing any drilling work on the lathe it is a struggle to get an exact depth measurement even though the tailstock has a dial and a rough depth gauge.
So I thought of a better way to measure how much my quill is moving and I came up with this. By using a digital vernier calliper and machining some parts to mount it to my tailstock, I now have a fully functional DRO on my tailstock for under a tenner.
