Our conversion is nearly complete other than the spoil board and dust collector. This was a marketplace find that we are going to use for signage.

This looks great. Which machine is it or did you design?

I haven’t been able to find this machine through any of my searches so I suspect it may have been a home build. It is a rack and pinion setup. Since it only uses 3 steppers im going to use the 4th that came with the conversion to make a lathe towards the end of the machine.

Our conversion is complete for the most part.

To now:

These mini toolboxes at Harbor Freight are great for bits and wrenches. We have enough room that it lives on the end of the machine.
