Diy cnc router. all 3 axis moving with explanation

So I did little bit of tuning on my motors and lead screws. and I got it to turn. My cnc is now operational!!! All it took was a bit of oil and some shim jims! Really though it turns out these machines need alot of tuning. I'm anxious to see how it does on its first cut. I may need the help of master Roshi(dad) to accomplish this.

My steppers wont turn

So I turned everything on and tried to test my axis' with emc2's stepconfig tool and the steppers wouldn't spin. im not sure what the issue is. the steppers turn when not hooked up to the machine frame. could the nuts on the end of the lead screw be to tight? could my amperage be to low? I double checked my wiring. I'm stumped. I need to sleep on this.
