    Stepper motor sizing

    I see that most of these are using 200 - 300 oz steppers.. Should I be ok using 700oz that I had from another project.. Or will they tear this machine apart?
    Thanks
    Paul

    you can use them, Jay used 640oz/in and gecko's. you just set the speeds accordingly, and make sure you definitely use limit switches.
