Solved Calibration / Calculating Steps

So, I'm not in front my computer for setting up prints, but I'm using Cura and changing the wall thickness setting. My understanding is that calculates the number of perimeters based off my novel size. So on a .8 wall, I get 2 passes.

Are we talking about the same thing? I'm getting lost at this point.

Also, thanks for all the info.

 

Thanks,
I know I don't have a fixed number of walls set. I'll have to check out Horizontal Expansion. Not a setting I've heard of.

I'll report after checking it out.

 

Thanks for all the help guys. I think I got the results I'm looking for. I'll try to pass on all the wisdom you have shared. After getting my settings back to the default steps, I was able to print a cube 20.1x20.1x20.1 . If I find models that are printing not to right dimensions that I need, I now know to scale up and down the model to get it fit, not to play with the steps.

My decagon isn't getting the same measurements from all sides, but in reality, I can live with what I'm getting. Especially after learning all of this. If you have any other suggestions, I will definitely take them.

Now onto understanding Marlin and trying to understand how to not need to level my bed every print.

 

Thank's I'll take a look.
