We recently purchased a pcnc and are loving it! Unfortunately, we have a very limited budget and cannot afford the duality lathe. I was wondering if anyone has tried putting a regular bench-top lathe on the bed of their tormach. We actually already own a bench-top lathe that looks exactly the same as the duality lathe except there isn't a sensor for the rotation speed. I guess we would be fine to start out with out needing the sensor, but it would be cool to cut threads and stuff, which would need the sensor. Has anyone figured out how to make their own and has anyone been successful using a non-duality lathe on their tormach?
