This thread is to describe my retrofit of an Emco PC Mill 50. I picked up the mill in February of '17 from an auction at a local university. The guy that ran the shop said he hadn't seen it run in the 10 years he had been there. It came with a bunch of tool holders, manuals, and even a CD and floppy disk that supposedly had the Emco software on it. No dongle or PC board to control it. They had it on a pallet so we used a pallet jack to roll the approximately 350 pound mill onto a tilt trailer.

Unloading at my end was easy... I don't know how I got along without a skid loader for so long. That thing is really handy.
