3 point homimg

Post by JNewcomb » Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:05 am

Doug, awhile back you posted your g-code for using a three point touch plate. After a bit of a struggle, I managed to get it working on my machine. I then converted to imperial units and again got it working with my Bill Griggs Makers Guide Triple Edge Finder.
It would be nice if you could add line by line comments to your G-code to make life easier for us budding CNC enthusiast. It took me several attempts to get things just right. With the new firmware, sounds like I will need to break the G-code up for Z axis and XYZ probing. I started to use separate configuration files, but it can be a bit awkward.
Thanks,

I have commented the program I sent to you and attached it.
