Thank you Candle for the schematic, I will try to find the parts and build it when I get the time. Just one question, is J2 connected the the Parallel port on my computer and J3 connected to the driver?
After looking at building the Picstep driver it is looking pretty expensive to build 4 of them, I figured I might as well build all 4 right off, so I may look into some off the shelf drivers and controller. How about this setup?

Would the steppers pictured above be considered 4 wire with a ground or could I consider them 5 wire?
Gerry, the Macro you made looks great, I can't wait to use it (I just finished reading your entire thread). Looks like I will have to start thinking more about how I draft in AutoCAD to get the paths going in the correct direction. I can't wait to read the tutorials that you said you hoped to make.
Now I just need to find time to start tinkering.
