Hello folks,
Would have said good morning but just looked outside and seen about 4 inches of snow!!! - just what you need when you have to travel to next town to take off radiator in mums house so she can decorate.

Anyway, came across this informative site when browsing around for information on buying and eventually converting a mill or mill/lathe combo to cnc. Have my eye on a Emcomat 8.6 lathe/mill at the moment but have not found any info on conversion as yet.

I am into motorcycles and am in the process of building what is known as a hybrid (parts from different makes/models) and need various customs parts (mainly brackets and turned parts) made up and have been let down or given ridiculous time scales by local engineers that I thought I might give it a go myself.

Also noticed that some members do offer to carry out work so may end up going down that route instead, till I do a fair bit more research into the viability of cash outlay for said machine and conversion and the amount of use its likely to get.
