For Whom the TAL Tolls!

[Starman18]

I am thinking about adapting(if possible) either a toothed wheel/belt /Stepper or suitable gear /stepper to replace the DEC  Tangent fine movement on my TAL-2M Project. Would like to do after replacing axis bearings.  A Google search nets nothing. Anyone actually do this here?  I also have a Vixen SP, but prefer the TAL due to mount capacity.  I do not have a machine shop, just Basic Tools/Brains.  Thanks
