I use the cheapest from eBay. Work out if you want 6 wire or 4 wire. (Does your Pico board support differential encoders? If it does you want the 6-wire) There are two main choices, MPG ( https://www.ebay.co.uk/183476117151 ) or potentiometer-style encoder ( https://www.ebay.co.uk/152204137441 ) Both will work, the smaller ones can be had with an additional push-switch which could be used to cycle between spindle and feed (for example) Do you need waterproofing? That costs extra. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
