The 7x are common, but take a look at the Harbor Freight 8x12. Its just
$50 more but a MUCH bigger machine- the 7x weigh under 100 pounds, the
8x12 is 225 lbs.
I just did one, I showed it at the recent CNC workshop. I will try to do
an article on it on my web pages. It was a very simple conversion and
works well. I did not do a tool turret, Im just using an aloris tool
holder and I manually switch tools- fine for my needs.
Mach works just fine with a single pulse on the spindle and I was able
to make a real neat pickup inside the headstock casting.
I have started a new set of lathe wizards for Mach which were well
received at teh CNC workshop. Hopefully before summer is over Ill have a
release.
