    My mistake. I meant ball screw not "hall" screw. Butterfingers on the ipad keyboard. The kit I ordered was the one from Precision Matthews, same as you. Still waiting.

    Re: Leadshine MX4660 Power Supply Options

    Thanks for the help. If I were to go with a linear/unregulated power supply (like an Antek torod/rectifier/large cap PSU), would I still need the shunt regulator?

    Re: Problem with MX3660

    What value are those fuses? I'd like to put a normal size fuse ahead of the MX3600 (between it and PSU) so it would blow before the SMD fuses.
