Decided to throw together a case for the power supply, arduino and fans. It makes for easy transport.

Cleaned up the cables a bit

She's wired!

I have the printer wired up today, I still need to hook up the quick connects. I could potentially wire directly to the board and start the testing process, but I'm going to wait on the connects.

Thermistor and heater-core wired with the leads. I made a point to verify continuity :p

Thermistor mounted!

I used Kapton tape to insulate each lead coming off the thermistor. I then used a bit more Kapton to envelope it, so I should be able to remove it without any issues if the need should arise.

Prusa progress

I re-epoxied the PLA bushings tonight. Hopefully they will stay aligned and in position now. The extruder head and heater core are installed. I have some slight fractures in the upper tab of the core, hopefully it will cot cause an issue. One belt is installed on the x-axis, I need to finish the y-axis, print bed and wire her up :D
