Hi all,

I am ready to wire my 2.5A stepper controllers, 24v 8A power supply and 270 oz/in motors for my router. I want to mount this all in an enclosure, the motors will be connected via a "microphone" type coupling. My question is, what wire gauge do I use? Is the wire harvested from an old computer atx power supply ok? Or do I need something thicker?

Many thanks,

Brian
