hi all, just an update on this script
after changing the if statements to false, with the warning at the end it still gave me the red warning endstops not homed. so i moved it back behind the first if statement and it then gave me the correct blue error message.
it works perfectly this way so unless this is a bad move i’m going to leave it this way.
to reiterate, do NOT have your homing stop on the endstops as it will refuse to move, even 5mm off the endstops and all good.
again, thank you guys for this script!

Right, I have decided to try(already started)design an enclosed Opto switch with a guided plunger. I just printed a boot out of tpu to seal off everything but the boot is pretty stiff. I’ve designed it to be internally adjusted and have a spring under the boot to help return the stiff boot. Looks good so far on fusion but so did all the other designs 😕. I’ll see how it goes 😁. Thank you, I don’t know what I’d do if this forum and all the excellent advise I’ve found didn’t exist, well I do know, I never would have been able to design and build my own 3d printer and my cnc. Kudos to all!!

@dc42 thanks for the reply, I now have a starting point.
I’m sure I’ll have more questions on this but not until I’ve gone further with development thanks again
