Hi like everything i build I've up graded my machine a lot and was wondering if my motors will work for now or wont cut the mustard. My gantry has developed in to a 5.5' tall 650 lb behemoth. I've got 906 oz steppers, gecko 203's. what should i gear them for rack n pinion?

Dude, you need to get a life and answer the emails I send

I know you say you have no time, but we have the same 24 hours in a day don't we?

Plus, when are you going to help with my projects? You say you will come and help. You know I am an old crippled SOB that needs the help.

Plus we need to sit down and work on my CNC for the planes.

Buzz.
