So whats the deal with holey calibration

Thanks for the replies Grizzle and Maticulous. Truely appreciated

metal maslow has different center of gravity and ring of rotation value of 7.125".
both companies use the same board. East by is hand soldered connection and ours is pick and place machine made. are you using the same values for both kits, because that will not work.

Could you please publish the list of metal maslow parameters which are known to differ from the standard kits values?!

What’s struggling?

I used Webcontrol via a pi.

The only parameter I set was the length of the rotation arms (used the drop down in web control)

After that I had a machine that cut arcs intead of lines

Next did “holey calibration” twice and it cuts great.
Suggest telling the Maslow that your work area is smaller than 8x4 for the first or second calibration pass - takes less time and easier to measure between the holes whe. You can reach them (I set 1.6m wide by 0.8m high), the holes appear 200mm in from the edge of your virtual boundary.

Happy to share the image of my pi SD or write a step by step when (for 4B) when I set up the one I’m sending to my friend in the UK (but that’s 2 weeks +away)
