I've come to the conclusion I need (well ok WANT !) a bigger CNC mill - my converted Denford Triac is excellent but the working envelope is too small for me.
I've been looking at various varieties of Bridgeport Interact (virtually - not in the flesh) and there seems to be quite a family of them. Does anyone have a straightforward pointer to the evolution of this animal in terms of models and capability and their working footprints? Was one made with a tool changer? Were they all servo motor driven or are some stepper motors?
Ideally I'd be looking for one with good ways and ballscrews but an antique controller as I would intend to retrofit a PC based controller running TurboCNC and probably Gecko drivers.
If you happen to know of an Interect about to be retired please let me know !!!!
