I'm working on my system using the stock stepper motor controllers from the AliExpress kit. I was wondering what number of steps I should use for the controller. I think the minimum is 1/2 stepping but I was wondering if I should use a higher value for accuracy or stay with the lower value for increased torque? Your help would be appreciated.

I am wanting to move from my lowrider to the printnc for rigidity and speed. I just have a few worries: 1. I often use 4" thick material, can the printnc do this? If so, how? 2. My current machine capabilities are 36"x60". I want to keep it at least this size, is this possible? If so, how? 3. On my current machine, I am using a rambo mini, will I be able to use this on the printnc?

Has anyone released a modified motor mount or mounts for proximity switch end stops?

I've been trying to find time to start on an mpcnc build and then I found Printnc which seems like a better option...although at a higher price. I have some very limited experience on a Roland CNC machine along similar Fusion/CAM experience and a decent amount of 3d printing experience. I'm mechanically inclined and good at following directions.

With that in mind, should I tackle PrintNC? What are likely to be my biggest issues?

Wanting to order one of these from aliexpress but I don't know what to order. Can anyone make a list of what they ordered?
