Cnc router stranded hook up wire

[Steve Pilon]

Greetings im building a 4x8 cnc router for the Milwaukee Makerspace based very loosely on the cncrouterparts.com one. Im to the point of looking for hookup wire for end stops and sensors, the wire needs to be capable on carry about 800ma as some and stop sensors are capactitave. Any ideas, sources?

I like to use 22awg stranded wire and twist pairs of wire using a cordless drill.

 

This type of cable is better is you need shielding.

Thanks Bart,

The shielded cable looks super turn-key.
Maybe when I get this 4x8 router done people from the CNC Build Club could come up and check out the Milwaukee Makerspace's cnc toys.
