that was invaluable firetrappe thanks, These are one solid machine, and apparently am not he-man any more, or so every muscle in my body is screaming at me. Had to leave it outside the workshop till the morning. Start work on upgrading it tomorrow

Hi, I bought an old (1999) SCM 120 cnc router, not working (ebay again). I decided not to try to upgrade the machine, but had the NUM controller updated from windows95 to XP. The main control cabinet looks fairly similar to yours. Perhaps the biggest disadvantage with not reconfiguring the machine is that the controller only recognises .XPI input. I have to save the nc file as .XPI in the post processor and then transfer that into the NUM controller. No problem at all, but it took a bit of getting used to. You are dead right, those old SCMs are very heavy and solid, well built machines. Placing the machine in position (pallet truck and machine skates) took some doing. My machine uses the spinning nut on the long axis and standard (all very heavy duty) turning ballscrew on the Y and Z. I suspect that your machine is very similar. These machines are real workhorses and I hope to hear that yours is once again earning its keep. Good luck. Geoff.
