Stepper motor selection

[zerodegreec]

Hello all. I am building my own CNC for sh!t$ and giggles but I did want to make sure I am looking for the proper stepper motors. I have a couple small steppers that I will use to test and tune the setup but I wanted to get some properly sized motors that can handle running a proper table later on.

How do you size the motors?
