Steppers Installed finally

Today I mounted my stepper motors and router. To do this I need to run for inch bolts through the motor mounts. This is what binds the motor to each rail and lead screw system. Fyi mount the lead screw couplers on the steppers before mounting the steppers to the motor mounts. this will save you some nut twist in the long run. I have also extended the wires to my steppers by using some 18 and 16 gauge wire i found hanging around my garage.(make sure to label the wires as you go so you dont have to ohm them at the end. This was quite the process with only two hands.
