Do people usually import or are there more uk suppliers?

What's the consensus on the cnc4you nema 23's at 4Nm too? They seem fairly low impedance but are there better?
cnc4you is a good place to buy the motors. Zap has them as well.

I would go for the 23's 3.1Nm. I have them running on my Warco WM18 mill that I converted.

I have never had any problems buying the drives from China and will save you a lot of cash. the AM882 is the earlier model of the EM806 but are proven and very good drives.

Have you thought about a motion controller? or are you going down the P.P. route
