    No, you haven't scared me away, just given me a lot to think about. hehe

    Gunna have a long look at the builds, cheers.

    Yea, I think I will get into CAD before I lift a single tool, but first, I definitely need to do far more research.

    On a side note. I've taken a nema 23 stepper out of one of the photocopiers, its 2.8v and 3A and weighs about 1.12kg. The length without the shaft is 78mm and I think it has around 270 ounce-inch holding torque. Does this sound about right?


    Will this stepper be O.K for an Ali gantry?
