Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Sherline - vs - Grizzley Mill Conversion (First Conversion)

I also have both.

The Sherline is much MUCH easier to convert to CNC. So I'd suggest you go
that route to start with.

Then use the Sherline to make the parts you'll need to convert the Grizzly.
The Griz will do larger and heaver work than the Sherline
will.
