Nice start!  What are you using for the Motherboard?

Re: wiring and hooking up the Prusa i3 today

What ever came in the kit. I think it uses arduino. Then the power source can be either 110 v or 220 v bc it has a switch to convert it to the 12 volt. I also used an all metal hot end which the cooling fan so I can finally do some PLA. Just got to finish hooking all these wires up and making them look pretty.

if it's the card on the left of the picture, it's a Melzi 2.0 card, sanguino compatible with soldered stepper drivers instead of removing ones and a ATMEGA1284P. ( v1.0 card are red, v2.0 are green , http://www.reprap.org/wiki/Melzi )

That is it. Could you tell me the steps to bootload it?
