Rotary table hook up

Hey, everybody!
I just installed a Machine master upgrade on my BOSS 5.
(I know I took the easy way out but I am not as hip to the
electronics as you guys are.)
I am extremely pleased with the results! Best money I have spent in
the shop since I opened it 10 years ago.
I have a Bridgeport rotary table that I would like to hook up
but I need advice on a power supply and drivers.
The control is made to handle 4th axis.
The stepper on the rotary table looks just like the motors on
the BOSS 5.
I guess a gecko will probably be the way to go, but which one and
what will I need for a power supply?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
John Carey
