As you might know (according to recent mail activity) I'm going to build a
new machine. My plan is to use a mesa card setup and the machine will
support 5 axis, but I will start with three... ...I think. This is where my
need of decision support comes in. I have always used servo's even on
smallest machines. But when I look at the stepper setups, they are like
half price even if I go with beefy motors.

Should I cut the costs and use steppers, or should I bit the apple and pay
for a servo setup this time too?

FYI, this is the base of my machine. I have two of these Deckel palettes.

I've been using motors and drives from http://cncdrive.com with great
success in the past and their drives are really stable with some nice
security features.
