Hello all,
I have recently bought a Bridgeport via a friend of the family, and I've picked a Machine DRO 3-axis kit for it. I'm starting to look at the mounting of the encoders, and rather conveniently it already has a number of machined holes which I can use... however... any idea what thread type they are likely to be please?
One is a 3/8" and the other is 3/16". I've tried 3/16" BSW but that didn't work, and I've tried 3/8" UNF and that too did not work.
It looks like this machine, making it a series one Bridgeport?

Any ideas what they could/should be please?
