Impressive video, Dan Mauch. Thank you. I deeply envy your Mill-Drill.
Now, if you please, I must ask:
-Have you published and/or would you sell plans/photos/drawings
detailling your CNC conversion?
-What about the X&Y axis? Did you convert to ballscrew/balnut or
are you using the original Acme screw&nut?
-On the Z axis, you already explained the rack-pinion modification.
But what about the pinion-worm_shaft link? Is it the original?
Didn't it add its own backlash?
Sorry to bother you, but I am very interested in doing to my machine
something similar to what you have accomplished.
