PLANS FOR THE
MINI-MILL, MINI-LATHE, TOOLING
We are currently
offering CNC conversion plans and DRO mounting hardware plans for the Sieg X2 mini
mill. Other plans are in the works. The "drivetrain" plans (i.e. ballscrew/acme
leadscrew plans) will be out soon and will show you how to upgrade your existing
stock screw/brass nut drivetrain in the X/Y axes with both ballscrew/ballnut
and/or ACME leadscrew/acetal leadnuts for improved motion for your manual and
cnc mill.
DON'T WANT TO SPEND
THE TIME TO MACHINE AND SPEND MONEY ON TOOLING FOR YOUR ONE-OFF
CONVERSION AND UPGRADE BASED ON OUR PLANS?

JUST BOLT-ON? LET US KNOW!

Any version of the mini-mill built by Sieg works with our
plans and kits.
