I have done the "mechanical work" on a milling machine table to provide two axis control!
I am now considering the electrics/ electronics!
Do I need to incorporate limit switches or can I limit the motions in the software ?

Yes :wink:
Depending on the software/hardware combination you use the Home switches also work as Limit switches after the Homing procedure is complete.

Yes I need switches ,
or Yes I can set the travels limits in software.
I presume I can also set home in software!!
If I were to fit home switches I may as well fit the "away" switches too
Is it permissible to leave switches until I get the software set up or am I likely to crash into end stops.
