Items that still need work:  
 
Items that still need work:  
   −
1. Waste board repaired or replaced. Entire board is unsupported in the middle, causing it to sag. Also, one stud has pulled up a volcano-like mountain in one part of the waste board, and needs to be milled down.  Recommend getting two $7 20mmx20mmx300mm extrusions (from Inventables or elsewhere) and T-nuts to support it in the middle (this is a common upgrade for this particular machine).

2. V-wheels/bearings on all axis need to be adjusted to a tighter tolerance.  Some are not making contact, gantry is not square to waste board, and spindle is not square either.

3. Spindle PWM, both power supplies, and perhaps the GRBLShield should be mounted in a compact, fan-cooled enclosure.  I'd love said enclosure to be part of a full machine enclosure that incorporates noise suppression, interior lighting, and dust collection.
     −
4. Finish Homing and limit switches.  They need some RF shielding/Google troubleshooting (search "Limit switch noise GRBL"), as well as adjustable limit-switch contacts on the positive X and Y axis.

5. General wiring clean-up and sheathing: some connectors have bare leads exposed, and I'd love to clean up the build by sheathing many of the wires.
