Looks great! Keep us updated on the progress. Decided on electronics yet?

Ummmmmmm. I bought a kit on Ebay when I first started this project, looks similar to this:



Not sure about hook up yet but that is where my starting point is.

Advice?

Buy a second one to replace this one when it craps out!
Keep posting photos!

All the drives are in and working, now on to wiring the beast!

Anyone have a walk through for the next steps in this process?

Just stumbled onto your build thread. Your machine looks very good in your last post. Where are you at with it?
