MACH 3 or LINUX Conversion on my Denford Lathe

[Dangle_kt]

I already have a fanuc servo lathe, so I don't need servo level performance.
I don't understand why anyone would sink ^^^^ that sort of money into a hobby machine, in fact I doubt most hobby level machines have the rigidity to match servo federates
A reasonable level stepper conversion is all I need.
Got one arranged for 500.
Thanks

Em..
You wanted commercial quality, and commercial threading, in Your post.
Threading was a requirement.

After 2000+ work hours on threading over 12 years I have very strong ideas on what why and how some things work, or not.

Never meant to ruffle feathers.
Let´s see how your stuff works out, ok ?
