Mini Lathe DRO - Setup and Getting Started Tutorial

My mini lathe, a Holzmann ED400, came with an DRO included. In this video I will show how to set it up and use it. This Digital Read-Out unit can be found on many lathes and on mills as well.

My pleasure. Hopefully someone will find it useful 😊

Thanks for the update on the lathe. I know that I will end up buying one, and your experience is certainly valuable for me on the day I will open my wallet. the Holzmann seems like a reasonable machine for a hobbyist. Look forward to more videos with it.

I don't think you will be disappointed with a lathe like this! It's great fun, and I hope it will earn in the cost eventually. The two spigot adapters I made in this video saved me $30 😊

Yes it is, and I'm not offended at all 😊 My first name is: "Kjell Inge" and I even have a middle-last- name: "Gyldenskog" - I just shortened it here on TH-cam 😏
