Hey all,
I'm trying to plan far ahead with some of the Propeller 2 Live Forum presentations, for a couple of reasons - we can offer the hardware we're using in them (I am a sales person, after all) and it provides plenty of time to get an object or demo together. @JonnyMac will have an object for stepper motors with some basic functionality (and some G-code capability) on March 10th. If you'd like to have the hardware handy, we brought this little A4988 stepper driver into stock. I'd suggest a couple of these:

And I've bought these stepper motors: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TD38CW8/
It seems the motors and A4988 Stepper Driver would be well-matched.

I've got four of these motors, and I'm very happy with their choice of connector: a 0.1" spaced breadboard-ready female version. Little things like this are important to me because it could save an hour of time.
