Why not go for a ramps/arduino setup? I bought a set for about 42bux shipped. It had the stepper drivers, smart lcd with sd card reader and a mega as a package. Smoking deal that I took a chance on, the reasoning was simple as I was not sure I could pull off my oversize design under my budget and skill. I went with a self built and self tweaked design and having no experience I did not want to spend tons of money. So far the gamble has paid off. The quality of the parts delivered exceeds the price paid.
