Hi Richard
 
Not sure just what you want re: 'plans for mounts' ??
 
If you want the standard frame dimensions, they are here, amongst a lot of other places.

The frame size alone does not tell you all you need to know re: the motor characteristics. You can get a lot of very different motors with the same size frame.
 
However, I suspect that is not all you want so you'll have to be a bit more specific.

Hi Richard,

Here is a link to some free CNC plans for the lathe LINK.

THESE should work for your mill.
