LOL no no no this is from Sweden
Don't wanna pay $1000+ for freight
I mailed acumotion and he said that it probably (spell?) could be converted to a cncmill with some powerfull 268 oz-in motors.
Is it hard to build mounts for the motors on each axes?
Anyway, it feels good to have a robust mill that later on can be converted to a cnc mill...what do you think? is it possible?

here is the mail:

If you can design and build stepper motor mounts on each of the axes, then it can be converted.
You would need to use the more powerful 268 oz-in motors.
It is impossible to know by looking whether that will be enough power to drive them.
You could purchase a kit and return it immediately if it didn't work.
Then you could find somebody elses more powerful kit to utilize your mounts.
