Cool build! Are you using nema 17 or 23 motors? Do you plan on replacing the wood with aluminum some day?
I'm not sure if you're talking about the inductive sensors or the Temco switches but I'll add an eBay link to the sensors.
Those are nice looking switches
From what I understand, it's the top of the sensor on the "X". They're nice and compact. [ATTACH]

A vise with parallels would definitely work for smaller stock. As long as your workpiece is fully supported you should be good. The spoilboard is...
Looking good! I would recommend using a spoilboard intead of suspending your stock like that. I would just buy an HDPE cutting board ,or something...
