Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] small 3-axis micro stepper

For anyone kind enough to offer 2 cents:
This stepper driver from xylotex looks like a good setup at a great price. Before I go out on a limb and buy one, does anyone see anything wrong with this system for a small cnc? I have an Enco mill/drill table that is slightly larger and heavier than a Taig's. I don't know what to use as a spindle yet (I guess just a router for now). Is 2.5 amps bipolar enough? I would greatly appreciate any help from those more experienced than me (probably 99% of those reading this right now). My problem is that I can't afford geckos, and don't want to buy a unipolar driver board and be disappointed with the performance.
Thanks,
Jared
