    Stepper How To

    I'm trying to get the necessary info to pick steppers for my router/plasma project. I've searched this forum for details. I've found plenty of reccomendations for specific table sizes and projects.What I'm looking for is a tutorial how to pick size based on needs and the associated info re power supply calculations, Gecko, etc. I would appreciate it if you could direct me to a source. Thank you very much.
