So I hung a light weight clip lead to bridge it.
It still crashes, but not near as often. So I may be onto something. Need a decent sized wire gauge, a 24 ga cliplead isn't it. But before I continue, I have at least 2 cables to add about a foot too, one being the x motors power run, the other the X home switch. While drilling out the inner of the taperlock, the last drill before I goto the boring bar was going to be a 5/8", about 15mm IOW. But to chuck it in the drill chuck which is mounted in a boring bar QC holder, I had to run it clear to the tailstock end to get clearance enough to chuck the drill. And ran it about 1/2" farther that the x home switch and x motor cables could reach. So as it was Derby & dinner time, I quit, having mowed and weed eated the place while the taper hub code was running. Tomorrow, thats first on the agenda. I need to get some chain conduit and do it right. Tisn't the first time I've hooked those 2 cables on something that stretched them a bit too far...
