It's looking more and more as if a BBB will be what I should use to run 
my big knee mill. Finally got the bad bearings replaced in the variable 
speed drive, then had to take it apart again and make a new bushing for 
the moving varidisc on the motor. (Apparently the entire variable speed 
belt drive industry ceased using a 35mm keyed shaft on a 3HP motor 
sometime in the past 24 years.)

I have the motors all mounted. Next week will be moving the hydraulic 
press and sand blasting cabinet to the left to make room for the mill. 
Then I need to figure out what I need to read data from two glass scales 
and one rotary encoder (on the Z axis ballscrew).

Project is coming along, not as fast as I'd hoped, but not terribly 
expensive. VS drive rebuild only cost around $100 in parts, new belts 
and bearings, mostly through Amazon and eBay.
