    good cnc conversion of 7x12 lathe

    can you do a good cnc conversion of the 7x12 lathe without using
    ballscrews i plan on using 1/2- .100 single start acme nook screw with
    delrin anti backlash nuts on the x and z run them tight i use them on my mill
    the same as figgnoog with no prob. i have turcite on my x2 mini mill slides
    best thing i ever did plan on doing it to the lathe helps take up the little
    difference in the Chinese iron
