Well, had a little success today. The last two motors I've had on order finally arrived. Hooked them up and jogged the machine on all axis. Everything appeared to work fine so I loaded some G-code and hit run. The machine took over and began cutting away.

It cut "something" but wasn't exactly what I had drawn. Lol Everything seemed to be cut at half scale. I still need to calibrate the machine so that if the machine moves 40" then the software should also say it moved 40". That may be part of the problem.
 
It's officially up and running:



Doing a few test cuts in some scrap wood.
