Thanks Jonathan. I feel that at last I am getting close to re-starting this project. How heavy 4 core do you recommend for the spindle?

1mm^2 is fine, but I used 1.5mm^2 CY since that's what I have for the stepper motors and it's more efficient to buy the same for all. It's important to use shielded here and earth it well.
