looked at the syil X6. is this the same as sieg? have you seen this
mill?

So, you are tired of all this big stuff?

I'd want to toss the steppers and put on a pro quality CNC control. Do
you happen to know of a 1000 lb. class CNC mill that would be older
and thus possible to buy with a dead control?

I have never seen anything like that for sale.

I'm just dreaming of a second retirement home. Can't fish every day.
I'd love to build IC engines out of a small hobby shop.

You mean like this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeUMDY01uUA?

That guy is over my head. I know I'd like to build a sterling, a
steam, a radial, a couple hit'n'miss, many more. But if this economy
don't turn around my retirement plan may change from a 401K plan to a
W.O.R.K. plan.
