    • RE: Only need XY auto level on 4 motor table.

      @deckingman I do agree with that. I started with 3 screws, but it introduced a slight amount of play that I was not happy with.

    • RE: Only need XY auto level on 4 motor table.

      So in RRF3 I would be able to level XY only using the BL Touch?

      I was always one to have the latest and greatest software versions, but now that I am 55 I under stand the principal of "If it's not broke, don't fix it!"

      @deckingman well let me rephrase that, mine is not going to twist. I tried several coupler styles and found that these couplers worked best to keep the screws centered with little or no wobble. But they will pull apart.

    • Only need XY auto level on 4 motor table.

      I have a 600mm x 600mm print bed using 4 lead screws. The bed is made of 8mm machine plate aluminum which is NOT going to twist with a 4 screw auto level. I am trying to find a way to level just on the X and Y axis. I have searched quite extensively this forum and the web and have not found any way to do it.

      Equipment:
      Duet 2 wifi + duet 5
      firmware : 2.02(RTOS) (2018-12-24b1)
      BL Touch.

      My least preferred method would be 4 end stops at the bottom of the Z travel because its 1300mm with single start 2mm pitch lead screws.

      Actually my least preferred method would be to install RRF3 if its capable of doing what I need. But if its my only option....
