Re: How to build a Custom CNC

In case anyone was interested HobbyCNC has their 3 axis driver board kit and 200 oz-in dual shaft stepper combo on sale for $179. Seems like a great deal; I just bought one for my Sieg X1 micro mill. It should be noted that the driver board is in kit fashion and you must assemble (solder) it yourself. Also, you will need some additional components such as a transformer, bridge rectifier, fan, etc.
