5.5A isn't hugely high. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CNC-Engraving-Machine-Stepper-Motor-Driver-Controller-0-2-5A-Single-Axis-TB6600-/121364943800 Is a very cheap 5A which might be enough. However, you probably want more "overhead" than that, and it _might_ make sense to use a driver that can connect direct to mains voltage, like: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2MA2282-CNC-Stepper-Driver-For-2-4-Phase-Motor-150-220V-AC-128-Microstep-8-2A-/131451084899 (If your mains voltage is lower then there are some cheaper ones) -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
