Gibbs Cam post

Does anyone have a Gibbs CAM post for the CNC Shark HD with pendant control? A guy I talked with over the net is asking $500. I can’t see spending that when I have Aspire also. I’m just very familiar with Gibbs as I’ve been using it for years at work. Aspire is fairly new to me.

Stepper motors

Can shark HD motors be replaced by another stepper motor
as long as the 1.8A/phase and the step angle are maintained? I’ve read that 1.8A/phase and a 1.8 step angle is what comes on all shark HDs. Thank you for any information anyone can provide.
