I'd just check to see what the current model looks like - they change model numbers like socks, but the underlying electronics remain very similar.

Looks great! Have you wound at full speed yet? :-)

Love this instructable!

Sammy, the diode I drew on the PDF is actually included on a wiring harness with the lathe. The lathe I have had a reset switch that led to the inhibit line and one leg of the switch had a diode in line with it. If your lathe has this diode, simply clip the switch off, leaving the diode and connect this assembly to your Sestos. If your lathe does not have the diode, there should be no need to add one.

Hi, it's for the sparkfun opto board

Beat me to it - yep, it's for the opto board from Sparkfun

Hi, it's for the opto and board from Sparkfun, the parts are ordered a la carte instead of in a kit

Yes, that can be adjusted out for sure. Might take a bit of trial and error to get it right, but the startup on mine is as smooth as silk.
