The boy from OZ (me) has just completed the Z-axis upgrade - also applied the suggested potentiometer changes to make it quieter.
WOW. Can I say that loudly enough? WOW.
I had resigned myself to the Desktop being somewhat noisy, especially making fine movements. The improvement is positively stunning. Great improvement.
Thanks, Andy (and ShopBot).
Oh, and the Z-axis upgrade is pretty damned sweet as well
Cheers
