Wires, out the top or bottom?

[randell (Randell Hodges)]

I’m looking at the assembly guide for the standard sizes shapeoko and it shows the wires coming out the top.

My electronics box has the hole on the bottom, if I have the USB/power on the right side like the picture shows.

Was the design changed, or am I doing something wrong?

Randell,

It sounds like its all correct on your machine, just that the warning regarding the pictures where missed.
Edit: Also I do believe that they changed the design, I have 3 holes and the orientation of it matches the picture in the Assembly guides you linked to.

Thank you for that link! I just skimmed it, but it L oks like that is exactly the information I was needing.

Edit: From the guide you posted, indeed, coming out the bottom:

“On the Standard Model Shapeoko the Connection side will face right, the wire exit location will point downwards.”
