Looking for a reasonably priced controller for my lathe... was thinking one of the blue boards on amazon or ebay or something!

http://www.amazon.com/SainSmart-TB6560-Axis-Stepper-Motor/dp/B009A5246O/

All I really need a 3 axis board that will be compatible with the hardware I have to work with.

Steppers are Nema 42 & Nema 34

Drivers DM8010 80V  I already tested the Drivers with the factory controller they work.

Drivers Close Up!


Threading Encoder.

Any help would be appreciated.
