Knuth WF1-CNC Mill Retrofit

Hi,

I'm Reiko from Germany. Almost a year ago, I bought an old Knuth WF1 CNC milling machine. After disassembling it, cleaning it thoroughly, and repairing faulty parts, I brought it back to life using an Acorn controller.

Here are a few pictures of the retrofit.

Hello Reiko!
Well done :-)
Is there a more detailed report about the whole retrofit in german somewhere? Maybe in a forum like cncecke.de?
