simple DRO for Clarke CL500M and CL430 lathes. Holder attaches to the bed with magnets and a digital caliper is used to act as DRO.
I put a slot in at the back that accepts 10mm threaded rod. This was in case i needed to add a clamp at the other side of the bed. So far it's holding with the magnets so this may not be required.
magnet size 10mm dia. 2mm thick
I attached the calipers onto the holder with masking take and superglue. For an overview of this technique see the video below
