Question Preparing for first power on...

Just about to power up my first Voron, a Trident 300, and wondering if there are any last minute tips or Voron-specific concerns I should be thinking about as I work my way towards a first print.

It's not my first printer build. I built an Ender 3NG a while back which was a fun project, albeit a bit obscure. This has been easier to find documentation and mods for as I've built, but there isn't much I've found on first moments with angry pixies in the wires.

I'm 100% self-sourced. Tap, angrycam, inverted electronics, BFI, sensorless homing, and cabinet lighting are the mods I've got in it to start. I only have the bottom and rear panels on for the time being, but I'll install them once I have the printer printing reliably. I'm using the Octopus Pro V1.1 main board.

TIA!
 
LOL, while nerve racking, sometimes you just have to go for it. I mean, its the only way to know.
GL, and let us know how it goes.
 
Double and triple check the wiring, but at some point you have to cross your fingers, flip the switch, and hope for the best. Probably be recording just in case of releasing the magic smoke so it can be shared with everyone (gotta get something out of it, right?).
