Thanks for all your help! This has probably been the most responsive forum I've ever been on. I'm reconsidering my design and wondering if a large dedicated printer would be better. Maybe one that prints Ultem and PEEK...

RE: CNC/3D Printer Hybrid
I was thinking more about how the G-codes were programmed "behind the scenes". Another quick question now that I've captured the attention of an Admin: Is it possible to probe for an angle in the X or Y direction and compensate for that angle when printing/milling? Similar to what the Prusa Mk. 3 does when it probes the bed and all the prints come out square to the bed. As far as I can tell this is not a feature but maybe you could pass it on to the dev team?

RE: CNC/3D Printer Hybrid
Ah, thanks. I am interested in how the Duet boards are programmed (ex. G20 - do this...). I know a little C and I was wondering if it would be something helped to know how to do (I am planning on using the Duet board for many projects). I don't suppose you know where I could find some information on that?

CNC/3D Printer Hybrid
I am building a machine that is capable of CNC milling and 3D printing by switching out the toolheads. I read another post where someone created a base config.g file and 3 macro files to modify the base config.g for either CNC, 3D printer, or laser engraving. I am wondering how I would go about doing such a thing? And is there an easier way to go about doing this?
