What specifically are you looking to have answered? I just ran mine on the Saturn 2 the other night, I might be able to answer your question.
Thanks, David!
The tubing I am using is 3/8 ID, 1/2 OD vinly tubing from home depot, fits the bolts perfectly.

For now, I am going to use the Raspberry Pi 3, with a CNC Hat to send step and direction pulses to the motor controllers. The motors I am using are closed loop nema 23 with digital controllers from...
