Today, I completely re-wired everything from the ground up. I went and purchased some rainbow ribbon cord (much smaller gauge that the previous, we’ll see if that was a mistake). This now cleans up the wiring within the cabinet more than I can possibly write (see pictures).

Prevous:

Now:

I also built a mounting unit for the same location that the previous controller was on in order to attach the Arduino and relays to.

The other thing that was a big next step was to create mini-boards for each of the motors that can be hooked up in tandem. These allow for all the common connections to be consistent and modular.

After everything was re-installed and the new module motor item was enabled, time for another test, also, a test that is even more showing progress!
