Hi
Im trying to understand a few things about converting the Harbor Frieght Tools X2 Mini Mill into a CNC Mill.
When selecting a Stepper Motor Driver Board for this Mill.
Do you use FULL STEP,HALF STEP,TWO PHASE STEP,WAVE STEP,MICRO STEP? Whats it all mean?
From what I have found about it all is FULL STEP gives you the most power from the stepper motors. And stops the stepper motor faster.
And as you go to Half to Micro you lose power from your stepper motors.
My plan was to go with a Stepper Motor Belt drive 4 to 1 , 20 TPI BALL SCREWS X,Y,Z set up.
So My qestion is; What Driver Board step system do you use and WHY?
