    quick couple of questions

    Well i've been learning more and more about CNCs, and it seems that all cncs have a driver moard or box. I've been lookin at this 3 axis stepper driver kit and i wanted to know if you guys think it's a good buy? http://www.xylotex.com/3AxSysKit.htm I'm still really new to CNCs so i'm not entirly sure what to look for, but my real goal as far as CNCs is to be able to cut 1/16 inch aluminum. I gotta think that the ability to do this lies with the tool of my choice and the power of the motors controlling the axis' to push the router through the material.

    So before i decide on the router, i wanted to know what you guys think of this kit? is the pricing good or should i look further, also what strength motors should i be looking for? These are 269 oz-in, should i get something better? or should i not bother with something this high and go for something not as strong?

    Your help is definatly incredibly appreciated
    - i'm slowly understanding all the working of CNCs
