moving up (hopefully) Max Micron Alum frame..

Yeah, you need to right click it, hit view image, then use that url.

That board is clearly labled MXP Pro V 1.5 right next to the Mega 2560 (I think) processor. It is an all in one board, and doesn't look too bad, I've definitely seen worse silk screens. At the left side of the picture you see your stepper motors plugged in. Next to each one there is a stepper driver integrated into the board and just to the right of the driver, there is an adjustable potentiometer if you ever need to change the voltage being delivered to your steppers. (if one runs hot decrease voltage, if you need more torque increase voltage) then to the right of the adjustable pots there are three sets of 4 holes. For example, one set is labeled YSTEP YDIR YEN and GRND.

Maybe you can get more microstepping by grounding YSTEP, but as I can not find any information about your board, I would not recommend trying it until you know more.

ya, I'm actually pretty impressed with the the board and electronics in this kit. I'm in no way a wire/board/electronics person but the board was rather easy to wire up as everything was just plug in. only other thing was power and it's an easy screw clamp.. not difficult at all. the frame it's self is rock solid also... really the only issue is the printed parts.. they all need to be replaced right away.. like right away! only thing still on mine that is factory 3D printed are the mounts for the board and power supplies and the 4 feet... every single other piece has been redesigned and printed ...

Yup, working my way through all the parts as well, thanks to you, of course... Much appreciated! I have no clue on how to design a part with software at all, I plan on taking some time to self teach myself. Maybe I'll try it with the y axis pillow blocks, seems simple enough.

Regarding the board mounts, I did see a brace that someone designed that Incorporated the circuit board and PS. I'll find it when I get home. I think it was for the duel extruder model, but I believe the fram the same.

I'll see what info I can did up on the board, I'm sharper on the electronics side than anything...
