Thanks to Tim and Jon~!
Ran a wire from the parallel breakout
ground to chassis on the enclosure and it ran~!

It is soooooo kewl to see motion after two years of planning.

Some notes -

Motors got very warm to the touch after a little running.
I could grasp a motor, but only for about
10 seconds before it got very uncomfortable.

Motors *SEEMED* a bit slow for my likes...
Is there a way to speed them up?

Also, the Z axis motor seemed to be "hunting" all the time.
(do steppers need "tuning" also?)

What is the "recommended" setting for "steps" in the Geckos?
Full, half, or less?

All in all, I'm very pleased.

I'll make a movie of it soon.

Now, with a little work, maybe I can get back to working on EMC...

Thanks guys~!

Weyland
