Finally got one!

I've been eyeballing the Orion Delta for a long time. I finally got one.
Ordered from SeeMeCNC last Friday, got it Wednesday. Set it up, homed the towers, and realized the Y axis stepper wasn't working right. After some reasoning, I figured out it was the limit switch which wasn't working, but testing the switch with my multimeter showed it should be working.
I got the front panel off and tested the connector and found that the problem existed between the connector and the switch... Who cut my limit switch wire?!!?!
Turns out whoever assembled it routed the wires for that particular switch through a hole with sharp edges, and around another sharped edged corner which borders the power supply which is somewhat free to move aound in there, and presumably, during shipping, the power supply cut the white wire and damaged the black one.
No matter! Some quick work with the soldering iron was all that was needed.

So far the thing has been awesome.
Thanks SeeMeCNC!
