Small milling machine conversion to CNC

[thehomeengineer]

Hi All
I have just manage to pick up a lovely little mill at a steal. I was thinking of selling it on to purchase a surface grinder. Then I thought about converting it to CNC. I have never tackled such a big electronic project as this.

I was wondering how easy it is to do and if a kit of bits is the best way forward and what is a good and easy software package to use.
I am very much mechanical and have tackled small projects but have little electrical/electronic knowledge but am willing to learn. I have a good PC and the mill its the bit that fits in the middle to link it all together I need .

Just need a good starting point.

Any advice welcome and appreciated and I thank you in advance for viewing.
