      You could get something like this to make the connections: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/on-shore-technology-inc/ES1000-12DSFB/ED3006-ND/2720753

      Cut off the current connectors a few inches from the connector on the motors and use the terminal block with one of the cutoffs to wire them together without any solder, to connect the motors to the Duet.

        How exactly would I use that connector? I am not grasping the concept. So how would the wires connect? there is really no clear info for those who are trying to learn basic electronics, does each color wire get connected together? all I see is a small board that you have to make and that's all I get from it. Is there a pre-made thing I can use?

          What I linked to is a terminal block, it lets you connect wires without soldering.

          This style is easier to see how they work: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/molex-llc/0387700104/WM5761-ND/362488

            So further looking at pictures, I am assuming that wires from motor one go into motor 2 and then out of motor 2 to a connector?

              Not all the wires from motor 1 go through motor 2. Interesting, googling a wiring diagram that works for a 3d printer isn't all that easy.

              This should help: http://rigidtalk.com/wiki/index.php?title=Z-Axis_Stepper_Motor_-_Series_Connected_Splitter_Board#Why_Series.3F

                I really appreciated it. So all i need to do is connect the wires shown in the diagram? And use the connector you listed to connect the in the order shown?

                  Here http://m.imgur.com/gallery/JwKg3uj is a wiring diagram that uses a terminal block. You can buy a terminal block in the electrical section of a DIY store (home improvement store in the US).

                    Here is a question, how come I cant convert one of the extruder port for a second motor?

                      Look up the M584 command in the gcode wiki at RepRapFirmware.org.

                        Ok, I sorta get that, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. So as long as that command doesn't exist than it will map how I set it up. Merry xmas dc42.
