Mill #1 - DynaPath with Delta 20-MU Controls. Not sure if there's a model or serial number for the mill itself somewhere. Supposedly has a bad servo motor. Seems to be in good shape otherwise.
Mill #2 - Lagun FTV-2
Anilam Crusader Series M
Seems to have had much more use and abuse but I'm not sure how to tell how much it's worn. There's not much play in the ballscrews. Supposedly has a bad servo motor.
I bought these mills pretty cheap, one was supposed to be for my son. Now I'm trying to figure out what the best way to get them in operation is. What is everyone's opinion? I'm guessing I should just update the controls and servo motors if necessary. I'd like to use them manually between now and then if I can get the spindle to turn on and readout to work. What is this taper? The toolholder doesn't go through the nut from the spindle.
