I have access to a Logan 11" lathe that while missing some parts would be a candidate for CNC conversion.

If it was yours, how would you convert it to CNC?

What manufacturers would you use for the conversion?

Are there any other modified 10"-12" lathes that you would use as a model for the conversion?

Thanks
