If you are mainly cutting wood the screws would be better with X and Y with 10mm pitch and 5mm pitch for Z.
The PLC-4X-g2 I don't think is a motion controller it is a BOB so has to run from the PP. or buy the matching motion controller as well to run it from the Ethernet port. Or look at the smoothstepper card.
Check the inductance on the motors before buying. Good one can be got from https://www.cnc4you.co.uk/Stepper-Mo...s/Nema23-3.1Nm.
In fact don't buy any electronics until you have the final design done and built.
I think you will also need some diagonal bracing on the frame.
Good luck with the build.Last edited by Clive S; 12-12-2015 at 07:32 PM.
