New to the sight, and getting addicted already!

Does anyone have information on converting a Harbor Freight 44142 3 in 1 Mill/Lathe to CNC? I am most interested in converting the Mill portion. More information on the machine here:

I am facinated with CNC, and want to convert my Mill for the learning experience. I realize the machine has its limitations, and I dont have any grand plans of making super precision parts, but I would like to learn more about CNC and figure this might be a good place to start.

Based on what I have learned so far, I think I will go with Mach II software, Gecko Stepper drivers and largish 34 size stepper motors.

If anyone has any information, advice or links on converting one of these machines, I would greatly apprecaite the help.

Thanks!
