Considder buying some parts and making others. the mill is easily
capalbe of making many of the parts, but some parts are low enough cost
to just buy the assembly.

As for driver, power supply and interface board, that is pretty
straightforward and someone who can follow directions can make the
thing.

I've found some headaches and problems with my conversion, be happy to
offer suggestions.
