Dual z axis drivers on ultimaker 1.5.7 board
July 25, 2014 10:26AM
not knowing anything about arduinos or 3d printers i picked up the sainsmart mega 2560 board and 1.5.7 ultimaker board, with all steppers endstop and heatbed included,

long story short, making a prusa I3 and am finding it difficult to get the firmware to drive 2 z axis steppers with 2 seperate drivers, (using marlin, and tried in repeiter)
anyways, im not sure the trouble is worth it, since wiring the steppers in series is always an option, just not sure of the benefits or downfalls of doing so,or how to do so
