Oops! Eddycurrent, you're quite right, terminal 3. Terminal 2 is not connected.

Miller, the eletrolytic you selected is a surface mount type, is that what you wanted? The other one is leaded. Maplin is a good place for miscellaneous components. Well, the 36 V works fine for me, lower voltages may work but the drives are fine with 36. That's the package I bought too of the BoB and drivers.

It was the only option for a 10V 10uF. The closest through-hole I can find is 16V.

This is a good place for components too;

The voltage rating isn't critical, 16 V is fine, leaded much easier to solder.

I gather that this circuit has now been built and works which is nice to know!
