I finished installing and wiring the led strips to my frame. There are a few pictures below. Also I setup a library with all of the pictures I took during the build process they are located here.
In order to be able to control all of the extras that I am adding to my laser I am creating a custom front panel with the needed switches. The switches will be able to activate the following: gantry led strip, frame led strips, pwm/pot, air assist override, exhaust override, and a surprise for later. The top key switch controls the main relay and the bottom (momentary) enables the laser test fire button. Also I am relocating the e stop to the top of the laser because I ran out of room.
