Can you turn a 100 year old milling machine to a useful CNC mill? Let’s find out!
My dad bought this machine from a junkyard in the 60s. It’s probably around 100 years old by now. I wanted a CNC machine, but buying one was lame, so i figured i’d convert this mill. This project took some time, but i had to finish it since I need it for my work. I like the mix between the old cast iron frame and the modern stepper motors.
Whats with the rap music? Well, the youtube audio library has a ton of bad music to choose from. But i found one great artist called NEFFEX who has made his music free to use. The playlist is as follows:
No filter – NEFFEX
Tough – NEFFEX
Go Down Swinging – NEFFEX
it’s only woth it if you work for it – NEFFEX
No turning back – NEFFEX
Enough – NEFFEX
Back to the future – Ofshane
