My mill made it's first movement today! I've finally got three working stepper driver boards, and the Y driveshaft hooked up.
It is pretty slow, in part because I haven't configured KCam properly, and partly because the drivers are locked in 8x microstepping mode. I can modify the drivers, but it requires desoldering IC pins and adding wire jumpers - and after watching multiple drivers lose the magic smoke, I'm somewhat reticent to touch them.
Still, things are slowly progressing for the first time in ages!
