Chaz,
Your mill looks like a real gem. Didn't recognize the original control, is it a Fanuc? Also, who manufactured the mill? Again, looks like a gem of a machine. Looking forward to seeing the results of your retrofit! The link to the air bearing lathe is fascinating. Thanks for sharing that.

I don't think air linear rails really exist as such, well there are machines with them but they are custom made machines.
It is just with yours being made of granite I thought possibly it had them as I have seen (online somewhere) a lathe that was made of granite and used air bearing slides.

Make sure you post a wee vid on youtube
