ProCutCNC makes a hardware kit:

I have it installed on my PM 1030V, and the fit is OK.
They don't have an assembly diagram,...
I'm still a long way off from purchasing a BT30 spindle cartridge, unfortunately.
I have the mill and I have my DMM servos, but I haven't had the opportunity to get them under power yet.
Next...
Thanks for that info.
Do you have a link for the Misumi / Mitsumi calculation software?

Possibly.
There is a video of a guy on YouTube that made his CNC mill out of epoxy granite castings, and even has the BT30 belt-driven spindle.
Here it is:

Something like that would be cool, I admit...
But I think I would have trouble getting it through the doorway into the space in my basement, even if I was able to disassemble it.

Re-working the design to use RG 25mm rails, and also 25mm ballscrews.
25mm ballscrews require a larger MBA20-F motor mount, and a special FKA20 bearing mount on the front, standard BF20 floating...
This enclosure box is bigger than I was expecting!
It has two pre-drilled holes on the cover panel.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191115/6837d1d9957dfad065da23e60f4573af.jpg

The steel panel for the electronics box arrived.
It's thicker and heavier than I expected.

Hiwin RG Series rails on the X and Y axis.
The Rails on the X axis (the table) have datum bar spacers that are offset - the fronts (right side) are 20mm, while the rears (left side) are 15mm.

Hiwin HG vs RG Series
I was able to get a price from MotionConstrained.com for a full set of Hiwin RG-series rails in the 20mm size for about $1100, a little bit more than the cost for the HG...
I've figured out the size I will use for linear rails - 25mm Hiwin HG series, as they're easily available.
A quick price check of Hiwin HG series, 2 sets of 25mm rails with 2 blocks per rail, from...
Kind of looking at this J1900-based SFF PC, Qotom Q190S.
Benefits:
Fanless
VESA Mount
2 x LAN Ports - 1 for Internet, 1 for Mesa
3 x USB 2.0 Ports
1 x USB 3.0 Port
I also have one of these Supermicro X10SDV-TLN4F Mini-ITX boards that I modified with a copper finned heatsink...
But this board is massive overkill...
The other C2750 board may be fine, but...
I will probably have the PC initially set up on its own cart, with the connection to the CNC control box being via the ethernet cable.
I have an older Asrock C2750D4I Mini-ITX motherboard that...
After some further discussion with JT @ Mesa US I've decided to go with the Mesa 7i76E as originally recommended (good call!).
DMM has some really fast shipping, the servo motors arrived today!
431032
431034
431036
431038
Looking into this further, Mesa actually offers two other Ethernet boards that would work:
7I95 Ethernet interfaced Step & Dir & encoder plus I/O Interface
7I97 Ethernet interfaced Analog...
Came up with a Y-axis motor mount that should allow me to re-use the existing hole for the ballscrew, with only drilling and tapping mounting holes required.
The motor end has the DMM NEMA34...
I found a like-new Hoffman CSD202012 (20x20x12") NEMA 4 enclosure on eBay for about $100, plus the panel board (sold separately) for another $40, so I'm going with that size.
Hoffman also has...
Thanks for the feedback.
I looked at the Ethernet stepper board, but kind of decided against it because it didn't appear to have the encoder feedback with steppers (?).
I thought it was...
Test fitting a NEMA 4 enclosure sized 20" x 20" x 10", with 3 x DMM DYN4 AC Servo Drivers inside the box.
I probably won't put the NEMA enclosure on the mill itself, but it gives you an idea of...
AC Servos
Decided to splurge and go for DMM AC Servos and DYN4 drives:
86M-DHT 0.75 kW AC Servo on X
86M-DHT 0.75 kW AC Servo on Y
86M-DHT 0.75 kW AC Servo with Brake on Z
3 x DYN4 AC...
X-Axis Ballscrew
Came up with a simpler mount for the X-axis ballscrew and motor mount, allowing for a full length ball screw and more travel.
The parts are designed based on off-the-shelf...
I'm looking at the TBI Motion store for Ball Screws:
https://www.aliexpress.com/store/1797664
They have some double-nut C3 or C5 grade ballscrews in 2005 series that are interesting:

Hiwin RG Series Rails
I am also getting quotes for the Hiwin RG Series rails, which use angled rollers instead of ball bearings.
RGH20CA2R520ZAHII: $671
2 x RGH20 rails, Heavy Load, Standard...
Hybrid Closed-Loop Steppers
Prices from Leadshine USA (leadshine.com):

Linear Rails
I think I'll go with Hiwin genuine HG series rails, from motionconstrained.com:
Z Axis: 2 x HGH20CAZAC rails with normal blocks, 20mm rails 760mm long. $288
X Axis: 2 x HGH20CAZAC...
Playing with the idea of mounting Hiwin QR-series heavy-duty rails on the axises (axii?).
The QR Series uses rollers instead of ball bearings, so they're for super heavy duty motion.
These are...
