    I have just built the Jd's Garage CNC Plasma table and upon powering up, I was only able to move the stepper motors in one direction (only after I had wired the motors into the drivers wrong, it may have something to-do with it).
    In addition to this, one of the stepper motors is getting quite warm while sitting in idle.

    If someone could help me with this, it would be much appreciated.

    Thanks, Connor

    Please contact JD to provide support for his machine designs - he just (ab)uses our software, we don't provide support on his behalf.

    If you are looking for a machine, that comes with our awesome software, our tech support, our community, etc - checkout LEAD CNC 1010 Plasma Add-On instead - also nice to do the right thing and support the company who's software you want to use.

    Thanks
