DeskCNC servo setups are available for that mill.

You can purchase a 3 axis kit with DC servo motors w/ assembled
timing belt reducers, electronics, software, manual, breakout board,
and motor cables for $849. A torroidal transformer based,
powersupply kit is $49 more. These are all new components.

An assembled controller as above is $1149, with power supply, power
and logic cables.

The motors and drivers without software are also available
individually.

The servo motor-reducer assemblies bolt onto a NEMA 23 stepper motor
hole pattern, and have thru shafts for mounting machine handles for
manual machining/positioning. They should be good for about 50 ipm
on a Taig. That's the speed with a Sherlines and they have the same
leadscrew pitch.

The DeskCNC software will run on Win 98 through XP and has machine
controller, program editor/simulator and CAM programming included.

See Kit-3 under CNC kits at http://www.cadcamcadcam.com for more
information. Details of the motors and belt reducers are under the
Servo motor category.
