    Thanks, Some useful ideas there Jazz, with everyone staying close to home at the moment, I had some time to get the E-stop working along with fixing DIN rails and mapping out where things will go:)
    After attempting to drill the first 16mm hole in the cabinet with a normal bit I realised what step drills are for and did the rest.. great tool.

    Hoping to have linear motion parts finally this week from BST. Physically building again is starting to feel more daunting then the electronics now.!
    Thinking about limits and home too -

    From what I understand a limit and home can be the same physical switch.
    So I'd expect you need a limit on each end of X axis, with one end doubling as a home. Then the same on Y, and Z can have a single switch passed on upper and lower limit, and say upper can be home.
    So not sure why people mention 2 X's being used - surely both limits are at the same point as the 2 X axis are parallel?

    Edit - Fuse question. The Transformer will be 750VA - 2 x 65V output. I ordered 10A D curve MCB seen on others diagrams, but I'm thinking 750VA/230V is approx 3A so 10A is very high. Or am I missing something (most likely)
