Do you think wiring most of the machine with 20 gauge wire is suffecient or should I use 24 guage in my build?

Thanks for anyone's insight ahead of time...! :D

Most of us are using CAT5 cable and combing pairs where needed and that seems to be working really well.

SD, 20 guage is thicker than 24! Use the 20 guage, it will be fine.
