Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Stepper Controller

I do hope someone answers your question Tyler. I asked something similar
once. Got into a private conversation with someone who was going to
"design" a small "controller board" (or whatever) so I could step a motor
one or more steps at a time (as selected by a switch). After sending him a
rough out as to how I would wire the rest of the machine so as to controll
the other movements using convetional limit switches and motors, I never
heard from himn again!
