Working on it
- Z axis wobble
- http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2151
- everything is printed and shafts are in
- parts are installed needs to be tweaked
- Automated Build platform belt wobbles
- I have no idea maybe a new belt made of thick kapton tape built to a tighter tolerance. covering it with pieces of narrow kapton seems to work for now.
Known Problems
