    I ordered a g0704 and while I wait I started my control cabinet.I recived a large order from Kelig.I went with Hoss heavy duty electronics package.Starting out with x,y,z axis.Are there any good step by step tutorials on wiring a complete system?Also I am going with a pully system insted or direct drive on my motors,much like the opti system.Does any one know the pully sizes I will need?This IS my first post i just wantsd to feel out the waters.Thanks Dave.

    watch these videos for step by step instruction, they are for kl4030s but it would be very similar.

    go 1:1 on the pulleys, no need to gear down and lose rapid speed with that package, 24 tooth would be a good size.

    Looking at econobelt, you could get 28 tooth pulleys in 5/16 bore for the screw shaft
    and 3/8 bore for the motor (x and y), easy, and still not too big an OD.
