If that is a Xylotex board under the fan in the picture, I would move it out from sitting right on the heat sinks to spread the airflow over all 4 of the drivers or possibly 2 fan,s. If you are using only the first three drivers and are using the fourth to drive a forth axis in the future, bias the fan to the three that you will be using the most.
A fourth axis/rotary table most likely won't be pulling all the amps that the others will be pulling.

Other than that it looks good

yeah the fans could be moved back for sure...it was a temp mount..thinking about using two fans...programs are really short right now and i try to not leave the drives on while iam making changes...so i hope it will be ok for a sec....iam going to be adding some pics for you guys ...and you can tell mw what i need to change ..so for the machine works great ...it does what i need ..

ok a lil bit about my table, its a 4x4 with xylotex 4 axis drive board and power supply with 420 oz motors, is belt driven on both sides of the x axis and the y axis is belt driven as well...the z axis is threaded rod (going to upgrade to better rod , one day). the gantry is made of .120 wall 2x3 alum sq tubing with the guide rails being made of 2x3/8 and 1x1 cold rolled steel. the x axis rails are made of the same 2x3/8 colled rolled steel also. the table itself was made from 2x2 16 ga. mild steel for the legs (could have been lil thicker , just used what i had) the rest of the table is made of 2x3 channel iron.the whole table rides on the good ol skate bearings...i think they were like 7bec or something like that...well i hope this gives you a lil bit of info about my table. i will be putting pics up..but my computer is a pos so it might take a sec... any changes i need to make ..let me know but be nice this is my first one..
