Script to measure printer volume (max/min stops required)
-
I just use dual limit switches but I guess the same thing would work with stall guard
I wanted the ability to measure out my machines volume once I complete my interchangeable bed. If your max volume is larger you will need t o adjust the second M208 as well as the G1 H3. You can probably also get away with not having the second minimum homing step... I do this to ensure any minor overshoot on the high end doesn't skew anything.
