Mill: X Axis DRO Cover

I'm using the iGaging linear scales for my DRO, and noticed my X axis would sometimes jump wildly before going back to normal. It turns out I'd gotten some tiny swarf inside the scale's body. After carefully cleaning it out, I used a 2" aluminum angle completely cover the scale. I needed to cut one side shorter so it would fit on top of the existing cover.
