Re: Still not started

OK, I've got the mill drill, a 9" SB lathe, computers (mostly old but
probably plenty good for this), and the software appears to be available.
I guess the next step is to locate some suitable stepper motors and then
build mechanical mounts and the electrical motor drive units. Questions:

Just how big of a stepper motor is really needed (x, y, z, cross feed, etc.)?

Where can the stepper motors be obtained at a reasonable price?

Are servos preferred?

If so, where can servos be obtained?

Actually, I think the biggest question is how to find the time to play more
with this stuff.
Thanks. BTW this is one of the best forums I have ever seen!
