General Mach Discussion / Re: Steppers as spindle motors

The biggest problem you'll have is that steppers simple don't do high RPM, and their torque falls off much more quickly with increasing RPM than other types of motors. The larger the stepper, the worse these characteristics become. For large steppers, you may not get above 1000 RPM.
