well that's a good thing to hear, because i intend to from ebay.

and please can you answer this,

in the second picture above there are 3 drivers board (plus the main board which connect to all of them) which the same seller said i don't have to use if i needed to build a CNC (but they can increase the accuracy of the machine)) ,
is he right or wrong?

again thanks for the reply.

thank you for the respond,
ahhh..looks like this is going to take a long time
my problem was as did tweakie mentioned, there is no " one way"  to do it, all the website use their way and their stuff.

but still i would like to see any links or examples on how to do it starting from the scratch.

and to Tweakie:
did you hear about BAD Result of the Chinese boards and motors, because i do intend to use them???

" maybe this is the wrong forum but it do say FAQ "
hi,
this is my first topic while i try to build my first CNC.

i'm looking into many websites trying to find what I REALLY need to start a CNC for a hobby,

so i saw this on ebay:



for now lets us say, i have a table and a miller,

so do i need also divers for the steppers motor? like here:
 

what about the homing and limit switches?
emergency  button?

everything you say can help.

NB: i know that i'm suppose to look in the websites that teaches how to build a CNC, but i believe the response here will more from experienced users.
