Hi guys,

I have a small lathe and was thinking about it to convert this to a CNC lathe, but I'm a newbie in this.
Do you have an idea where I can buy stuff to make it this way?
I already have a cnc router, so i can use this hardware for steppers.

Thanks for the information.

Read these before you develop any preconcieved notions on what to do and how to do it:

Perhaps long and tedious BUT retrofitting a lathe is NOT as easy or as simple to do as in doing a mill, especially if you plan to do threading.
