6. UltimateBee: Motors, Limits, Spindle Cable and Drag Chains

This is sixth in a series of videos where we'll be assembling the motor cables, Limit Switches, Spindle Cable and Drag Chains on an Ultimate Bee 1515 from BulkMan 3D.

The first thing I'll mention is that I found the amount of tubing for the water cooled spindle to be too short to work. I had already cut mine in half to run it but you'll hopefully have seen this early enough and save yourself trouble by just grabbing some extra here, or splicing with the connectors that come in this kit if you suffered the same fate as me:

You'll also need a few tools at minimum or more depending on how you're assembling things:

Here's everything I used with the soldering, labels, channel covers, etc:

There were a couple of "gotcha's in the Bulkman instructions on this step so hopefully this video can save you some pain - Don't rush and enjoy the process.
