Routing Wires
Parts Needed:
Before we attach the drag chains back onto the end links we’ll be moving around a couple links to get the right
fit. To do this, put your hands on either side of the link you want to break, then twist and pull them apart to
disconnect. Set aside the remaining, unused links - they can come in use if you’re planning on upgrading to a larger
sized LongMill later.
On the 12×30 LongMill, remove enough links off the Y-axis drag chain so it’s
16 links
long and add
3 links
back
onto the X-axis chain. In the case of a 30×30 machine, remove
13 links
off of the Y-axis drag chain, and add
3 links
back onto the X-axis drag chain. This will make it so the chains are the correct length to travel the whole range of
motion of the machine while also staying as short as possible to maximize the wire length going to the controller.
For the remaining assembly you won’t need any more of the loose hardware except for the provided wood screws
and the 3D printed ACME nut covers. If you want, take a second to clean off your space and feel free to stick all
the extra remains into a box for later use or maintenance on your machine.
