I was looking back at a few threads where others installed a tailstock DRO to see which version I would like to try. One thing I'm wondering for those that have installed one...doesn't the metal plate you attach to the tailstock shaft interfere with being able to retract the tailstock far enough for it to release the attachments? I know with my live center I can't seem to get it back out unless I back out the tailstock and I've noticed when it releases there doesn't appear to be enough space to have a plate attached to the shaft. BTW I have the Jet 9x20.
