Not sure which pic you are asking about - one pic is where I was drilling and tapping the mounting holes for the bracket - the rag is keeping chips out of the pulley housing. In another pic - in the background there is a tool grinder covered with a rag. Was that the question? i am a freak about keeping stuff clean - except when I am in the middle of something - then everything is everywhere...
As far as the CNC of the mill? Yes - I am going to CNC the thing. In fact I came on here after making progress on the first bracket for the X axis. I came on to post the first progress pics in many months.
The link to the write up/progress log for the conversion is listed above in post #8.
Thanks for the comments, JD. I have been spot checking your progress, too! Thanks for the tip about the VFD. I am not sure I understand - it seems like the noise would be worse by putting the VFD near the controller - or am I not thinking straight?
