Aram, I troll ebay when I can for motors. You have to be careful though. It's ok to buy there, but difficult to shop. Check : http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Suppliers under 'Electronical Stuff', see www.daqstuff.com They sell kits to assemble and their latest terminals are better than they were a year ago. Mesa's 'T' versions of the 7i33 and 7i37 are good. Don't forget to get the associated connector for each board. They sell the connector cheaper than anywere else. Just consider it part of the package price.
Check http://www.granitedevices.fi/index.php?q=servo-drive-vsda Looks good, but I don’t have any experience with them. Maybe someone else does? Good luck.

On your description you said that your JOG wheel works well up to increments up to 0.010. Close 0.100 jog wheel can not count or so. How much cost to you ball screw and mount blocks?
