servo with or without spindlebrake for c-axis?

I'm still unsure whether to post all questions regarding my build in my build thread or somewhere else, and if somewhere else, then where? xD Whatever.. I'm moments away from buying a 1.5kw ac servo, and there is the option with a break for an additional ~120€ as i would love to use the spindle in p...

Re: New build: Weiler 120CNC Retrofit on the cheap side
