Stepper drivers are here!

Yes, after a week the mail is starting to trickle in.  The postal worker strike was called off on Monday, agreement signed on Wednesday, and first mail in the post box today.  There are still three international parcels in the pipeline (amongst others Kapton tape and small thermistors) but at least something is happening.

The drivers are Stepsticks supplied complete with small heat sinks and adhesive tape to attach the heat sink to the surface mount driver chip.

Testing will start this weekend - I will post the test procedure and results.  I will be using the RAMPS 1.4 testing software.
