Hey Guys, I am at a point that I need to convert my Sieg X2 mill to CNC control. I have found two kits/plans online and wanted to know if anyone on the list has used them? They are the "Steele Company's" conversion kit/plan and the "FigNoggle Designs" kits/plans. For what it is worth I plan on building the parts so I will be using the plans and not the kits. Right now my biggest concern is the electronics. While I am confident in building parts for the machine, the electronics is some what daunting. I have bought three "Linistepper" driver boards and assembled them with satisfactory results. But I 'm lost when it comes to the controllers. From what I have read I am leaning to the Mesa 7I43 to connect the driver boards to the PC. I also want to add DRO using ShumaTechs DRO-350. And was wondering if that could be integrated into EMC some how. If anyone has used any of these parts and/or plans and could give me some advice it would be greatly appreciated. My funds are limited and I don't want to waste it on things that will not work or conflict with EMC. Thanks in advance for any help! lennywayne
