What gauge wire for motors and drivers etc?

Great, thanks for the info Jazz. I've had trouble finding single core shielded wire though. CSE cables looks a good resource.

Why would you want single core shielded.?

You only need shielded cable on signal cables, So stepper wires and any wire going to Inputs, Ie Limits, e-stop.

Try to keep cables carrying power away from Signal cables to avoid noise interference. Obviously There places where you can't but try keep any crossing or running along side signal wires to a minimum. Don't Tie wrap power and signal wires together.
