Hi Guys,

advice is needed. I'm about to build a cnc for milling and drilling PCBs, wood, and occasionally aluminium.
I choosed NEMA23 57HS76-2804A (1.9Nm, 2.8A, 57x57x76mm) motor, I think this will be strong enough. (what do you think)
Please help choosing the correct driver for it. Some youtube videos suggest TB6600, but I read some topics here and in other forums about that it often looses steps. Is that right?
Could you please recommend me any other driver? I prefer cheap solutions shipped from China or Europe to avoid duty. I ordered other cnc parts from ebay, bangood, ali, etc.

Thanks in advance,
Steve

I've been running TB6600s for 3 years on my DIY CNC. 2'x3'x6" work envelope. I'm a lightweight user, meaning new to CNC, so not pushing the machine very hard. I figured I would control costs until I learned more and outgrew them. But that day never came. Still going strong.
