When ask how much for retrofit answer better to buy new machine $50-250K Here is the money. Need open your own shop and retrofit machine and it is not simple. Another ides, I want to buy small 12 by 12 inches frame of bridge type machine to install my motor on. Sample on e-bay machine for $770.0 I search on ebay CNC MILL an on page 4 or so picture of machine and price $770. Custom Built CNC Router Mill Engraver
