Took forever, but I finally got them to go. Worked out much better after I gave in and resized them.

I decided to play around with the Opto 22 option first. I had all the stuff sitting in front of me and thought what the hell. May wind up saving some money that way or maybe not. At least they are something I have worked with a lot in the in the past.

Still not sure about the OEM panel or this other one I have. The OEM is like the one in the pictures of the lathe that is like mine (white one). I'll post pictures of the other one that I'm considering in a day or so. Also had the question, is there any harm putting the power supplies and transformers in a remote location? Like a second panel just or them or the tail foot of the lathe? Or, is it a good idea to keep the servo amps as close as you can to the transformer?
