Hi Folks I own a legacy Revo here in the UK. I haven't really got into using it even though I have had it for a couple of years, but now I'm getting a chance to spend a little time with it.
My background is in Software design and a little electronics so I'm interested in using some of that to turn my Revo into a CNC driven beast with digital display either from software or from readouts on the machine. I've quickly looked around here for some info but wondered if any of you guys could point me in the right direction either to an off the shelf kit that would work for me or to somebody who has already done this. I'm neither sure of the size of motors required or how many axis is really useful. Embarassingly I'm probably more into experimenting with the machine than making top quality turnings although I hope that might come through enjoyment of the machine :-) I currently have a 3HP plunge router attached to the Revo but I see that the mills that use CNC tend to use a fixed router attached to the vertical mechanism. Has anyone done this sort of conversion on the Revo? Anyway, hope somebody can help me out and looking forward to a bit of interesting project work on my Revo.
