Sounds like you are getting some good training to use the e-stop for
emergencies
and not as a stop button...

Another thing is that axis alignment is preserved when you hit

After all, CNC supposed to be the way to
produce parts for my projects, not another project by itself.
I did let that point get away.
Beside this all there are other learning curves in front of me -
CNC programming, CAM
Hi Sergey,
IM Service do some nice servos that are ideally suited to a Sherline
http://www.cadcamcadcam.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATSCategory=11
They also do some nice servo drivers though they are step/direction so
you can't use the encoders as a DRO.
Steppers do work and can be

Mill. After reading more about servo based systems I'm divided, I could

I am a servo bigot, and just don't want to do anything like
machining metal while flying blind, which is how I think of
stepper systems.

Personally I would go one step farther. I want torque or velocity mode
system and not a position mode (step/dir) motion
M2CW Nothing wrong with your question. No foul in the replies. We
need a little heat once in a while. It tends to clarify things and you
asked for clarification. Many other in the list are looking for the
same info. We are really fortunate that we have as many choices as we
