Killing the Blob 2

(Killing the blob part 1 and 3)

The important part is in the corners of the build platform, not the middle

This hack to your choice of start.gcode is based on a suggestion by Tai Cullum that the pump priming double as a platform leveling test. So in each corner a little triangle is printed. Advantage: if they stick you know you're level. Disadvantage: If they stick you've got to take them all off before the next print.

Code follows after the jump:

As before:

1. Locate your start.gcode files (under your ReplicatorG directory at \ReplicatorG\replicatorg-0037\machines\replicator.)
2. Make copies of these files as backups or edit the copies.
3. Open either Single_Head_start.gcode or Dual_Head_start.gcode depending on your machine or edit them both if you're not sure (or want to be consistent).
4. Locate the (Position Nozzle) line under the (**** end homing ****) line.
5. Replace the (Position Nozzle) line and the lines that follow with this:

 G1 X-107.88 Y-67.95 F5400.0 (Position Nozzle)
G0 Z0.1 (Position Height)
M108 R4.0 (Set Extruder Speed)
M101 (Start Extruder)
(Draw Test Pattern)
