Bhagwan,
I have a Harbor Freight 7 x 10 mini lathe, model 33684 and a Harbor Freight Drill Mill machine model 42976. I made small items for pieces of artwork that I do. Plus I make knives, some are artist and some are for practical use. Supplying a PC and a program such as AutoCad is not a problem for me. You can find the machines on the Harbor Freight web site; www.harborfreigt.com
What level of automation do you offer? What is the price range of these DROs. On the Mill Drill, I need to do make simple curves at times and some angles change cuts. The lathe, I have some need for automation, but mainly more control over the machine for making curves and arc in the cut. Example like shape of a vase or a Coca Cola bottle. And be repeatable.

Do you have a retrofit DRO kit for the
mill/drills like Harbor
Freight sells? What do you have to added to the 7 x
10 lathe that would
help automate some of the process of the lathe?
Do you ship to the states and Canada?
