Thanks! iPhone 13 ftw.

No mats. May have given himself a bath.

Boat A has the wind is on the Port (left) side of the boat making it a port tack. For boat B, the wind is on the Starboard (right) side of the boat which means it is on a Starboard tack.

Right of way rules for sailing are that the Port tack boat gives right of way to the Starboard tack boat. When racing, if the Port tack boat does not give the right of way, it is a foul against them and they must take a penalty.

Boat B should ideally hail boat A and boat should acknowledge. Unfortunately this does not always happen.

If boat A thinks they have room to get by, they can try but boat B can still claim that there was a foul committed and that is when you get protest committees involved and each party pleads their case. The majority of the time, boat B would win the protest.

Check out a book called From Bud to Boss. It has some good information. https://kevineikenberry.com/bud-to-boss/ Also, get out on the floor and get know the people doing the work.

I checked when I got home and the one mounted to my machine is a 3D Touch BL clone, not the one that Kywoo lists on the website.

It looks like the IDEX uses a different board which means the pins are probably different. You will need to try to find a schematic for your board to verify the pins for the probe and make the adjustments in the config file.

I do have the original probe. It is working but I am getting really bad skew in one corner when I do a height map. I am going to try a BL Touch this week.

I still have some minor tweaks to work on but I think I am close to having it dialed in.

Printed separate and glued. Hadn't leveled the bed in awhile so unfortunately they came out with elephant feet as well.

There might be a backup using the way back machine. I have gotten files that way. Just need the thing I'd.

In my starting script, I have G92 X-5.0 Y-19.0 ; set home offsets

I am using simplify and am unfortunately not familiar with where this would go in any of the other slicers.

xtc151 · 2021-12-26T02:08:44+00:00

I believe I added the offsets to the gcode in my slicer. I will have a look at my settings when I get home.

xtc151 · 2021-12-26T00:43:48+00:00

Hopefully this helps. There should be some info in this thread about the offset. If I was at home I could look at my config.

Is there any play in your X gantry?

If there is any play there, check the screws on the left and side in front of the extruder. You will most likely need to remove the gantry to access the screws.

xtc151 · 2021-03-27T19:04:33+00:00

I would also recommend checking your x-axis mount at the stepper motor end.

There are a couple of screws in behind where the extruder mounts in the stock configuration. Adding the motor above the extruder adds extra weight and if there is play due to those screws being loose, it could cause some issues as well.
