I know, I recently saw this question asked, but I didn't catch the responce
(sorry). I just aquired a runout mill for free (the price was right and they
even delivered it ;-) from the shop across the street. The motor runs and
the rest of the mill seems to be in fair shape. It will be workable for what
I want to do (+-.007). It used to have an Analam controll on it which they
kept along with the servos and encoders (but they left all of the scales
on.) I would like to make it my first CNC project useing EMC.
What size steppers or servo's would you reccoment for the X, Y, and Z (quil)
axises?
