Re: Grizzly G8689 mini-mill CNC retrofit kit

Thank you, Dave!

You photos are EXACTLY what I want to accomplish. your photos are
outstanding and a great help to me!

I still haven't found the NEMA 34 motors I'm looking for at an affordable
price. The type of motor that allows the hand cranks to be used and has
enough torque to satisfy me (+350in/oz).

I search ebay frequently, let me know of any other surplus sites to search.

Thank you so much!
