Okay, I asked for this forum, so I ought to get something going. I realize 3 in 1's are the redheaded stepchild of the machine tool world, but its all i've got & will do more machining than what I had, a $50 HF drill press, heh.

I just bought mine, it is used but new to me. It is the AT300 from the late 80's when smithy was still in Oregon. Metric leadscrews & scales. Funny bright blue color.

I'd love to hear from anyone that has CNC converted a smithy, I haven't found any pictures or descriptions of how others have done it. Pictures would be gravy!

Also, if you had a smithy but got rid of it, you can tell us what you had.

Hope this gets things going.

take care,

Jester
