Ecksbot 3D Printer

[tnt11]

Hi, anyone have one of these from openhardware.co.za?

I'm struggling with one small setup issue. That being after calibration and initial setup, my extruder/hotend is tooooooo close to the home corner of the bed. As in it snags on the corner when you try print anything.

Any advice? Every setting I have tried works, and then defaults back to this problem.

You probably sorted out your problem already, but if not, you might have to move your end-stops to positions where your "home" will not snag anything. Specifically on the EcksbotZA, they sell it as having a 200x200 working area, but that isn't really true. You will have to sacrifice some of that space so that there is at least an outer area around you glass plate where the extruder will never go, and thus you can use that area for clamping down your glass plate...etc..
