Hi.
Still currently building my CNC wood router to make wooden Electric Guitar bodies. I have been offered 4 of the above Stepper motors, but are they powerful enough to do what I want to do?
The hardest wood I will probably use is ASH, the softest probably BASSWOOD, and I am not in any hurry, so speed and acceleration are not important to me, accuracy and dependability are.
Has anyone got any thoughts on these?
Regards.

You need to post a link to the datasheet or at least tell us the part number. NEMA 17 simply means the size of the flange is 1.7" across but the length of the motor isn't specified, nor the winding or magnet parameters. Those will effect the torque and speed charateristics.
Can you identify and share the manufacturer and part number?
In short, NEMA17 are unlikely to be powerful enough.
17 is the size you'd typically find on 3D printers.
