RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Stepper size?

I was using a Camtronics 5 amp chopper driver.

Adequate translates to able to get most tasks acomplished in a
reasonable amount of time and with a minimum of frustration. Rapids at a
speed slower than I can crank the machine by hand and loosing steps are
both occurances that would make me deem a setup as not adequate.
