Old Emco against new China turning machine

[nachtfalke0126]

Hello,

first sorry for my english I demonstrate the differences between a very old (I think 1965) Emco Maximat Standard and a early Bernardo WQV550 China turning machine.
The Bernardo is my first DIY CNC machine and the Emco was a very good purchase. The Emco has perfect requirements for linear guides!!!





After cleaning the Emco i switch the old ball bearing and paint the machine. Next step is ball screw on X and Z...
