What size items are you looking to machine? This will help make your mind up regarding converting your mill or buying another. Your mill wont be the easiest to convert as you have to motorise the knee rather than the quill. I'd say that £700 - £800 will get you decent steppers and drives and a motion control card, you'll need to spend nearly the same again on cable, relays, control cabinet and general bits and bobs, its amazing how it all adds up!
