Maybe this is a good time to remind future builders that if you short circuit normal Machine tool building standards, bad things can happen.
Some quick ways of doing things only result in low/under par performance, and this doesn't usually result in serious damage.
I am referring to putting all electrical/electronics in an suitable enclosure, wiring with suitable circuit protection.
And if an accepted E-stop circuit and disconnect is implemented, it will stop these potential dangerous kinds of things occurring.
If the low voltage electronics are kept live, at least a properly implemented E-stop will disconnect all high voltage power circuitry, when unattended.
And a sealed enclosure contains any fire hazard.
