Very nice - I need to do a proper power supply at some point too.

Good work!

It is time consuming but stress relief!
I use the clear plexiglass to make the holes,this method is fast and accurate,no measurements to take and nothing can go wrong this way,you see thru the plexiglass where you must drill and just drill,freehand.
The you put the Plexi on the mdf or aluminum plate ,put both on the drill press and make your drills nice and square!

Small update.
First of all I want to say that I am glad for two things untill now, first off all that I start to cut the plates from mdf and not direct on the 20mm aluminium plates.:D
And the second one is that I have those thick aluminium beams!
Warning, cover your eyes this build has nothing to do with what other guys post here :-P

I am about to order proximity switches and mechanical switches also,any recommendations ?
NPN or PNP and what about the voltages those switches,the proximity works,I find a big difference in working current...

NPN = normally closed. Basic Amazon ones work fine for general homing / limits (around £7 each)

Hi Nick,

You just made me regret not buying a UB1.

Keep up the good work!
