    Building my own CNC

    Hi,
    Im a newbie here.
    I just bought a small 2x4 Torchmate CNC machine.
    And now I want to build a 4x8 CNC.
    So I hope you guys can help me & give me some suggestions about what kind of motor I should use.
    Well basically all about the electronics part I will be needing to build my own CNC machine.
    Thank you guys

    Xylotex is a good driver, still got my old one laying around.
    As you grow into bigger hardware, it still comes in handy to have the smaller Nema drives for a 4th or 5th axis table or a tool carousel.
