I am entertaining the idea of converting my Millport to cnc for hobby use. There are a lot of miles on the knee and saddle and while its still quite capable of accurate work it does require some care to do so. The Y axis leadscrew is quite worn so there is considerable pitch lead variation.
If I had a set of linear scales for a DRO installed is there any system that could use that as feedback for a servo system? Would that still allow me to use manual control of the mill? I have no desire to loose full manual control.
