lots of questions

Check this out, may be right up your street. Don't know anyone that has got one but Roy would not be selling crap. http://www.diycnc.co.uk/html/system4.html. Very little wiring to do on this one.

2.5A drivers
3.1Nm steppers
Modular design - much less wiring

With Power supply - £250


All you will need is a box to put it in, not a very big one either by the looks of it!

But if you do go for something that needs more wires then don't worry about it, wiring drivers, steppers breakout boards is a lot easier than you think. Wiring by numbers most of the time, took me an hour to get mine up and running on the bench and that was my first attempt!

Thats with stepper motors correct? I might give him a bell.
I might by the sherline mill with mounts and stepper motors and just use it manually for a while then fit a kit like the one you posted.

Yep, that price includes steppers.

Roy deals by email only, don't be put off by it as it will be worth it. I have been and met him when I collected my stuff as he is only about half an hour down the road from me and he is a top bloke. Very helpful and certainly knows what he is talking about.
