AM882's are an excellent bit of kit and really are easy to use once you get around the chinese strange way of setting up the software for programing the drives. I use them and they really do make things run very very smoothly. -Michael

That's the plan, however at work they seem to want me to do the PhD whilst working them, in which case you've only got a year left!

Glad to hear it, it's not that common these days to get your foot in the door of a good job straight out of Uni. Make the most of it and don't forget us whilst you're busy making money!

From reading around a bit more I think I'm sold on the AM882 drivers. Currently got 3 of them (+ a lead) sitting in my basket at Zapp. Wisdom dictates that I don't pull the trigger until the end of the month, but my trigger finger is getting fairly itchy at this stage

Don't tempt me! I really, really shouldn't. If the drivers are out of stock then I can always move the ballscrew purchase forward by a month.

That is very possible but if an unexpected expense crops up and I've already cut into my "emergency petrol money", then I can't travel. If I can't travel, I can't work and can't invoice clients. That makes my bank manager sad and my wife furious

That's easy sorted.?? . . . .change both.!!

Now on another serious note.? if you haven't bought the screws yet then you don't want to be buying the electrics. Only buy the electrics when you need to fit them has just having them to spin on the bench is wasting the warranty and you won't learn anything from it.!!

Rouge the only thing i can say to that is what is more important you? On another site i saws omething that i liked, just came out on the market. I decided then and there to buy it. 6 hours later they doubled the price? and that was from China, go figure?

I know what you mean about work though it has to come first so it sounds like you have answered your own question and it will have to stay on hold. Hope you get there soon, bank managers are a PITA to please.
