Using Mendel Electronics to power a cnc milling machine.

I am debating on making one of these machines.
[www.instructables.com]

Would I be able to use the Mendle Electronics to control it? I ask because If I can I will probably make it so I can use one set of electronics with both my Mendel and the milling machine. If so what modificatons would have to be made (If any)?

... the electronics and other specifications are the same when using similar motors.

The only difference is the software ...

Hi Just browsing the forums.... I am buying a CNC machine... and I plan on starting a Mendel Reprap soon after my CNC arrives... I am wondering...if I replace the router on the CNC... with an Extruder set up from reprap... will this work for 3D printing? Would I use the same software...ir Rhino 3D / TurboCAm/ Sketch up?... or is diffrent software needed?.. ( i'm thinking diffrent software..when I imagine the process ).. Any helpor advice you can give is much appreciated. rockislandstudio@gmail.com

Thanks

If I were you I'd edit my last post and delete or otherwise mess up my email address before I got a spam robot on me.

There's been several people doing cnc to repstrap projects. Here's one: [reprap.org]
