Description

Easy fix to an annoying problem. Somehow the printer has a 310x310 bed and the X and Y limit switches line up to the edges of the bed.

We cannot utilize the full 300x300 bed size if 0,0 is at the edge of the bed.  This is a failure of the written firmware to effectively utilize the 5mm border meant to provision bed alignment variance. I am trying to avoid going down the firmware rabbit hole for now.

This design solves the X-axis by adding a boot to extend the trigger by 5mm.

Y-axis trigger is a screw, and while easy to get a working solution, I am thinking about how to implement a fix without disassembling a lot of parts.

Customisation hacks

  1. If you like shorter than 5mm, move the part down to your desired height on the slicer bed. It should only slice the 3D model that is above the bed.
  2. If the part is too tight or loose, play with the scaling by 1% to 2% increment till you get a good fit.

As always, everyone's 3D print will be slightly different. Play around with the slicer to resize the part to fit.
