    Default Stepper wiring

    I have just wired up my stepper motors and thought i might share how I made it look neat
    I used the jaycar 1540 microphone wire to the J-boxes and stripped the guts out of the off cuts to be used as a sleeve. I had originally used heat shrink but realised the outer casing was a better solution

    Nice neat job warrick, one thing to note is the size of the conductor. For my 125 oz motors it is recommended to use a 0.75mm conductor. The reason for using correct size cable is to reduce voltage drop between the power supply and motor under heavy load. Cable that is too small will reduce motor performance.
