Hi Clive
Thanks for your quick response on a Sunday!
Yes I realised it's an old thread ,but thought I'd ask.
I'll be running 4 motors, 1on the x, 2 on the y , and 1 on the z.
Would like the option to add rotary indexer later perhaps.
I have bought nothing yet, except steel for the table.

I will be starting a build log, more then likely on here and on the mechmate site also.
Best Mac

And on vacation Well if you are running 4 motors two slaved, then forget the mx3660. I hope you have done your homework re the Machine you are attempting to build. Have you had a read through some of the build logs on here? It would help if you said what size machine and what you want to be able to cut with it.

Have you decided on what software you will be using.

Ha! I’m on my holidays too.
Still doing my homework... been lurking in the back ground for some time now. Have decided that If I don’t start asking more questions I’ll never make a start on it.
I think I make a proper start and post in the introductions.
Enjoy your Vacation.
