Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Extra Small stepper motors

:) Might be too small! The ball screw and the turret screws I plan on
using for these functions will be 3/16" or 1/4" diameter. Motor sizes about
1" diameter or slightly less would be ideal. I'd like to keep the length
(for the compound driver) as short as possible to allow maximum angular
rotation without having the spindle hit the part. Yep....this unit can use
either tool bits or rotating spindles.
