6th day - connecting to the controlboard

So now we need to connect it all to the controlboard. The two motors controling the x-axis is going to be connected to the same terminals, so those we have found a connector for on the ship.

We have considered along the way how to connect things in a way, that makes it possible to do a better design in the end - soon we will clean up the mess, and hopefully get a nice little machine.
