    Hole in wall for Y axis

    So how many of you have made a hole in the wall for the Y axis stepper motor?

    The shop itself is fair sized, but the tool room is much smaller 12x20 and I built it with 8" thick heavily insulated walls, it's a shop within a shop. Even when it's bitter cold out, the heat of the machines and computers keeps it warm during the day. A small electric heater keeps the temperature constant at night.
