Hey Drew, I ended up mounting it exactly like the old encoder, in the same cylindrical housing. I only had to machine a new mount for the encoder housing because the disc was smaller diameter so the mount had to raise the encoder a bit compared to the older one. I attached the encoder wheel to the same spindle mount as the old one using the same hardware. I thought I took pictures of it but I can’t seem to locate them. I also thought I had a dxf and gcode for the mount that I made but am having trouble locating that as well. I will see what I can find...
