Is Single Phase Adequate?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I am planning out my CNC mill
project and haven't bought a mill yet, but am leaning towards a BP or
similar 9/42. My question is: am I being realistic or not in
thinking single phase will be adequate for my mill? I know about the
single to three phase converters but want to avoid that if possible.
Am I also correct in that my CNC motors, whether servo or steppers,
will not require 3 phase because I will have a power supply
converting to DC for them? Sorry again if these are dumb questions.
