Electronics progress

Yet another pololu carrier board
pololu carrier board

So I've got most of the mechanics done, but I'm looking to rebuild it with belts instead of the leadscrews.  While I'm trying to design a workable belt system with some scraps I have from a few steppers, I've been working on the electronics side.  I've got the stepper drivers finished and will be sending it out to a boardhouse in the next few days and hopefully will have some boards built in a little while.  I've uploaded pics of my design on the reprap wiki and thingiverse.

I'm still putting the final touches on the silkscreen before I send it out for prototype and will post up the final design files for the board soon.
