New Controller almost finished.

Thought I’d share the progress.

The acrylic frame was made from a single sheet of acrylic from the hardware store.  A 20$ heat gun was used to make the plastic soft and bendable.  Each bend took maybe 5min to complete.  It was really not as hard as expected.

Another view

I jury-rigged the controller to the motors long enough to cut a front panel so I could mount the ports and switches.  The design was made with Autocad and was translated into cnc code with Lazycam.

A little hot glue to hold it nothing too fancy.  Still needs a little sanding/filing to smooth out the edges.

The buttons will eventually control things like Emergency stop and Feedrates, though they are not wired in yet.   The back panel still needs to be cut, too.
