Before designing any panel a risk assessment is needed to assertain the level of the safety system, this is usually selv 24v DC but not exclusively, if you are unfamiliar with risk assesment and safety level grading then you already out of your depth and shouldnt be designing and building panels unless it is deemed there is no risk.
Next you need to design your control system and have in mind it should be fail safe so if a limit switch fails or losers position it isnt going to create a dangerous situe ( just had this on a lathe with a mechanical forward/reverse lever holding 2no' limits in normally closed when in neutral, a limit slipped position when in neutral causes machine to set off without notice.... luckily no-one was injured but shows what i mean).
Then its the basics of fitting it all together choosing the right gear and sitting back and admiring your adult mechano set.
