Thanks for the advice, the initial plan was to go DOM and Floppy Emulator as you have suggested. I didn't at all consider the work offsets tool table and local edits. Part of this is due to my ignorance of CNC machining. I might revisit this after I get more experience with the system. The replacement of the original hard drive to the SD card adapter was successful. The only issues I had was removing the floppy, it caused a weird delay error on boot up. I disabled the floppy in the bios and fixed the issue. I'm in the process of remolding a new home and preparing the old one for a renter so my time is pretty limited. This still doesn't prevent me from working on it when the wife is not looking lol. I received the new lube system components and timing belts, I have 5 days off starting tomorrow so I hope to make a little progress soon.
What do you guys like for work offsets? I was looking at the Haimer. I already have the tool length sensor.

I know they make one with the Bt30 but if I get the 3/4 shank I can use it in my RF45 as well.
