Quick Tips & Tricks #1, Using Edge finder with DRO (Using the SDM Function)

In this Quick Tips and Tricks video, I'll show how I use the DRO and a Edge finder to find the edge of a part, and to find the center, easily, while maintaining your origin point.

The picture-in-picture makes it very easy to see what you are doing on the DRO while watching what you are doing on the part at the same time. Thanks for the simple explanation.

I like how you zeroed into that precision.

Nicely done. Show more on the functions of the DRO. Thank You.

I like the picture in picture, it really illustrates what you are doing!

I've only had my DRO (on mill) since this Feb, and still in the learning process. Thx for sharing and the SDM function I and half are in my path of learning :)>!, , Bear

Do you have a video on storing drill or milling points on your DRO, like finding the center and then 4 other locations.? I have a Ditron D 60 but they all same to be the same in functions, Sure be great to see how you store them, read the China manual but very very confusing. Great video on the edge finding, and do almost the same as you do, but like your rechecking,

The INATOOL Flex Edge Finder is a different approach to edge finding and it is fast, easy, and precise. Unskilled machinist can edge find within a couple tenths, first try. If you guys have tried to train new machinist you may know it is difficult to get them to use a wobbler or indicator arm correctly, resulting in scrapped parts. The flex edge finder is an indicator accessory, which makes an indicator a very precise edge finding tool.
