Awesome work mate! I think I've finished up on mine now, it's not as easy as I'd have thought to be honest. My guess is you were probably unable to get enough torque with direct drive on the main shaft.
I ended up going with a geared motor (26.8:1) running at < 0.75a directly onto my main shaft in order to get enough torque whilst full stepping.
Interestingly enough I was having an issue with dropped steps, even when running quite slow, until I turned the pot down on the driver board (max at 0.75ma, turned it down about 20% and suddenly no more skipped steps!).
Anyway, it's a fun project and it looks like you've done a great job on yours... better than the "jam it all into a sistema tub and bolt it on" job that I did that's for sure!
