    Only comment (if you have a chance to make any small mods at this stage) is to add a few more sets of terminal contacts for the output, all wired in parallel. This allows you to run separate power feeds to each stepper driver, rather wiring them daisy-chain fashion, and it's easier than trying to stick three big wires in the same terminal. Not sure if it really make a difference in our class of machine but it is generally considered good practice not to share high-power connections between devices, and it's a lot easier if you have multiple terminals available. Might be able to put multiple spade terminals on each of your contacts, though?
