A few days ago i discovered this excellent project (congratulations!) and i'm in the process of gathering all the necessary stuff to get started.
I will go for the drv8825-hw203 full version with the rotary encoder (i believe it will be more convenient than using momentary switches).
I'm having trouble finding the toggle switches described in the parts list though.
3. Toggle switch mini ON-OFF SPDT 3pin
4. Mini toggle ON OFF switch (power on reset circuit)
The only option i know for the spdt (3) is ON-ON type and the former (4) i believe is an ordinary spst type on-off toggle switch?
Thanks in advance!

You can use the same kind of switch in both locations, they are just "on-off" switches.
You wouldn't want a momentary or center-off switch.
Ones like these would work (not necessarily recommending them, although nothing wrong with them, just the first ones that popped up in my search):

Thanks a lot Mike!
One more verification cause i'm a little bit lost with all these version and options, is this https://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinoascomfocuserpro2diy/files/DRIVER%20BOARDS/PCB%20DRV8825_HW203_OLED_RE_REV4/ the right board to be used with a rotary encoder and a drv8825?
