Those CAT5 cables have a nice clean look.

Troy,

Thanks for commenting!!!!!  Yes, I really like Arturo of CNC4PC's idea of modularizing the interconnections with CAT5's......  I really, make wiring much easier, and neater in overall appearance.

How do you like the layout of the cabinets, and the Labeling of the components with device labels?
(they tie into a BOM and the Electrical Print that is going out with the machine)?

Hi Scott,
 I didnt notice the labels the first time, very nice. The overall, looks well organized and not crowded. Makes me wish i would have invested in a bigger box for my MillDrill when i converted it. :)

Well, Just got the new "Drive Covers", for the DG45 drives... from CNC4PC, it is a VERY nice touch, will get some pics of them posted when I can.

IF any of you guys, have some comments, suggestions, Flames etc. on this build let me know, always looking for ways to improve the end result!

Hi Scott,

I am a mechanical person. Your electrical stuff is way too cool for me :). I only can wish that some day I can build an electric cabinet as well organized as yours. I am learning a lot from your work. Waiting for more photos.

Cheers,
Zafar

here is a video of the machine moving around, running a circular pocket, from the pocket wizard.
