Here's a photo showing the bracket installed and the connection with two bolts to the carriage (lower 2 bolts). There are also two bolts that connect to threaded holes on the pickup (upper bolts).
I re-installed my compound and QCTP. Here's a photo showing the completed Y Axis installation.
I connected my display and the scale works great. I checked to make sure that I have full travel without the scale ramming into the back splash. I'm going to really enjoy having a DRO on my lathe.
In the next couple of days I'll finish the installation with the X Axis scale which is mounted on the rear of the lathe bed.
