    I'm using Gecko drivers, so a microstep is 1/10th of a normal step.

    I am going to use toothed belts, so my design choices are belt pitch, reduction before main drive belt, and main drive belt pulley. Steppers are 1.8 degree per step.

    So you think I should base the resolution on half steps ? So lets say I want accuracy down to 0.05mm I just make each half step equal this ?
