I have one I converted. There is some info about it and the ball screws
I used on my site www.KTMarketing.com/CNC.html

If I had to do it again, I would probably just by the screw conversion
from Chuck McGee at C&G Research. The Shoptasks use NEMA 34 motors and
seem to work best with 300 + oz/in units.
