Re: Affordable CNC for Sherline 2000 Mill?

Lee

Most definately..

Sherline CNC upgrade kit - $250.00
3 X US Digital MS23 Steppers - $180.00
Xylotex 3 Axis Driver - $125.00
Power Supply Components - $100.00
TurboCNC - $ 20.00
======================================
Total (3 Axis) $675.00 USD
forth axis $100.00 USD

This is ONLY one example using NEW components. There are several
other well thought of drivers and motors out there. Shopping E-Bay
can also result in significant savings. An all-in one electronics
package is now available from Sherline as well (pn 8760 - $600). At
the very least you should use them to source the CNC upgrade kit for
your mill.
