Paul,
For anyone interested in cnc conversions this site will be able to
direct you to what ever information one might need. www.cnczone.com
Also if anyone wants to contact me directly I am converting 2 mills and
a lathe. Any controller older than 1990 and cost more than $1500 to fix
should just be upgraded, if one has the time to do it.
Best Regards,
Richard Konnen
My pals own
<http://www.denvercnc.com>. They make a box that runs a
three axis (or four axis) CNC via stepper motors. Connect it to your PC
and connect it to the steppers and away you go. One of these guys
connected it up directly to his Series 3 Bridgeport. Seems to work
great. It's fun to see the small box throw around that massive mill bed
while the 4 HP spindle spews piles of chips. =8^O
They are knee deep in back-orders at the moment. Popular box. They
sell them as fast as they can make them.
