    I don't wish to put a spanner in the works but.....there's only two axis here,are you not supposed to have the turret a third axis?

    As I said, to start with, I will do the X and Y axes. Once I get the machine running in X and Y I will use it in CNC mode to make the parts I need for the Z axis.
