Hi,
Jay, I have got steppers on my X1 Micro Mill. After recently standing for over 6 hours non-stop 'supervising' a part I was making, I can tell you that steppers won't stop you from leaving the machine unattended. The lack of a decent coolant system will!
Regards
Warren
BTW, 6 hours standing in front of a machine clearing chips and spraying coolant by hand can get boring (who would've guessed?). I'm definitely going to look into flood coolant one of these days...
