On this page in the wiki: [http://objects.reprap.org/wiki/] it describes how to make a power connector for Mendel, but it doesn't tell how to connect it so that it provides power. For instance, how would you hook it up to the stepper motor drivers? Or the motherboard? Seems like a few important things have been left out.

Yeah I found that bit to be rather bizarre, especially as the motherboard uses the 3.3v from the ATX to supply power to the SD card socket, and everything else has standard drive power molexes on it...

I think I'll skip that part and just bolt the ATX psu on somewhere
