3D printer Delta build. All axis assembled and electronics connected and it lives.

The last few days I have managed to spare a few hours to get the assembly going, the frame assembled without a hitch and then I proceeded to assemble each of the axis, have hidden all the cabling neatly inside the extrusion. Then connected all the electronics with a quick calibration and upload of the firmware (same as that used on the small leadscrew machine).All the axis homed perfectly. I then sliced a fairly large print at 80mm a second and ran this from the SD card. WOW its quiet and so very smooth I am looking forward to getting this machine printing. Need to complete the effector, order some ball joints and make a new extruder.
