It's Alive

I have the new electronics enclosure all connected and in place!

Everything is working and tested. Inside the enclosure I placed the relay for the Dewalt, the powersupply, Arduino and G-Shield.

I reversed the Y-Axis drag chain so the wires exit the back of the machine.

On the front of the enclosure are illuminated buttons for Cycle Start, Feed Hold and Reset. The red wire plugged into the top right is the probe. Also a power switch and Emergency Stop button.

On the back (Switches are not plugged in yet) are the motor connectors, 2 x plugs for the relay, the USB connector and power cord.

Everything is nice and neat. I did not add the LEDs inside the enclosure as originally planned, maybe something for later.
