    Here's a list of the original parts:

    2x 50v/4.2A Drivers running from 36v Regulated SMPS
    2x 80v/6A Drivers running from 48v Regulated SMPS
    Generic 5axis breakout board
    Kress 1050 Spindle

    And after the upgrade:

    4x Leadshine AM882 digital drivers running from a pair of Leadshine SPS705 68v unregulated SMPS
    Generic 5axis breakout board running from 36v Regulated SMPS
    2.2kw watercooler ER20 spindle and VFD

    My *reliable* rapid speeds prior to the upgrade were stuck around 3000mm/min. Afterwards I'm aiming for 5000mm/min which I'll be happy with. Aside from the speed I should have generally better performance throughout the range. The spindle should be a large upgrade over the Kress.

    Here's a couple of shots of the of new bits:
