Ramps with 4998 drivers Imo. Even if you could find a use for three extruders, you'll find it hard to drive them all with the available software.
Question for each of you
Is chocolate hard to melt? I mean does it have a narrow band ewen Molton and burnt?
Does anything support the 8825's 32x Microsteps? They seem price wise not far off the 4998

Out of the box it only supports a maximum of 3 heaters or fans if you need PWM control of higher current devices. There are additional servo and aux pins that will give you either digital (full on/off) or pwm control but you'll need to buy or design your own controllers to utilize these. By doing so, you can easily satisfy your requirements of additional fans (if you needed the ability to control them), LED lights, or really anything else you might want.Quote

Obviously you can plug more fans directly into your power supply, but they won't be controlled by your

Interesting, I guess you heat it to the lowest temp it flows and only heat it to stage five at the nozzle?
For ramps, they pretty much all come assembled. The Stepper drivers slot in sockets, then all the wires for thing plug onto various pins. The price didn't look awful, but could be cheaper I think. Are you in the states? There are a surprising number of English and European people here and I keep assuming everyone is.
