Hi,
Who's the current guru on running the 3D printer? Is it possible to get
together and learn how to work it? Are there any 3D printing events or
classes planned?

Hey Steve,
I've used it somewhat recently although I've since seen what looks like some very
minor damage to the build platform from improper use. I never learned how to override the
zeroing on the Z axis but I'm game to hack on it for a bit. Best time for a quick
test would be around noon weekdays - do you have a specific part in mind? I'm going
to send some models to shapeways soon so I wouldn't mind getting our printer tuned up
for a rough draft.
Cheers,
Hol

The secret incantation for zeroing is "G92 Z0". when sent from pronterface
this saves the current z position as the 0 point. so once you have it at
the right height using the 0.1mm up/down buttons, just send the magic
words. if the correct position is lower than the current 0 point, you may
will first have to do "G92 Z10" in order to let it move lower.
Once you get it dialed in, i think it needs to get written into eeprom to
avoid losing the setting after a power cycle. i'm not sure if there's a
command for that or whether you will need to reflash the controller.

I work for a 3d printing company about 6 blocks away from sudoroom...I
should come over there at some point and fix up the printer.
