Encoder cable is next for tonight.

Excellent! You'll have a lot more fun once you have the servo loop
closed and can play around with precise positioning, accel/decel,
homing, etc. Remember to wire the index signal from your encoders back
to the control for eventual use for precise homing.

I will definitely use the index signal. As of now, I do not even know,
yet, if my encoders work at all.

Another big chunk of work is wiring all external things like limit
switches, buttons etc.

If you get ambitious, think about adding decel switches to allow you to
home at rapid rate most of the way.

My mill does approximately 70 IPM right now, I think that it is slow
enough for homing, no?
