want inexpensive 4 Axis CNC controller - plans? suggestions?

Hello everybody. I was planning on buying a 4 axis cnc controller for
a foam cutter from HobbyCNC...but now they're out of stock until
further notice. The price range of $80 - $90 is where I'd like to stay.

Well, I'd like to find out if there are alternatives out there.

For example, I wouldn't mind building my own controller - but I can't
seem to find any compelling plans out there. Does anyone know of plans
that have inexpensive or decent controllers?

Why is it so hard to find this kind of stuff???

Anyhow: I have decided on my stepper motors...so I will share that
with you all. I hope it will make it easier to recommend a controller.

Bipolar 2.0 Amp/phase 83 oz/in torque

I would be running the standard foam cutting software like Giles
Muller and others.

If anyone has suggestions please let me know! I'm ready to start this
project ASAP.

Thank you!
