Kirk, 

A couple comments. You have the visible LED's in
series with the LED's in the optoisolators. The
threshold voltage of both LED's when on comes real
close to the 5V from the driver chips. It probably
works, but doesn't leave any margin. Would be better
to route the visible LED's to ground through separate
resistors. 

Also, have you thought about adding additional DAC's?
As you already have the isolation and power supplies,
it would be easy to add 3 more DAC's. (D_out of U3 to
D_in of the next DAC...) This would give a simple
board that would control 3 servos as well as a
spindle.
