CNC Lathe Retrofit Part3- Sliding Motor Mount Boxford 240 TCL

Today we are making a sliding motor base for the lathe spindle motor. This Boxford 240 TCL came from a local college and has done basically no work. When I bought it it was in bad cosmetic shape due to sitting in a damp shed so I stripped and resprayed the tinwork. Originally ran a BBC computer we are retrofitting with modern steppers with Linuxcnc as the controller.
