    Just wanted to give a shoutout to tesseract. He's helped me tremendously! Follow his advice.

    Printed his bed levelers today but I ran into one problem. At the end of the print the extruder decided to go down about 10mm into the print :(

    I don't know if this is part of the g-code for the print or if its from my end g-code? Anyone else run into this issue? Also is there some documentation on the g-code syntax? I'd like to learn to program in it.

    What does your end g-code look like? And a big thumbs up for Tesseract he is the man when it comes to Robo troubleshooting.

    Success ... again tesseract came to the rescue. it was my second line of end g-code which was G1 Z5 F5000 ; lift nozzle

    This was causing the nozzle to drop down 5mm into the print. I should have noticed that but i'm new to g-code.

    So what did you do, delete the code line or changed it to a higher value? How did that line get in there?

    Yes i just deleted the line. I put it in there during the whole setup debacle. I was just messing with the settings everywhere trying to get it to print right.
