I’m not putting this in a topic about the bed, the X,Y or the homing zero positions topics.

I’m putting this here as a start to the investigation of how the Glowforge operates and not how we wish it to operate. I’m pretty sure those two ends will coincide.

Screen captures and other images to follow.

Please disregard portrait video. I need to remember that when leaning over things and shooting video, I have to check orientation.

Lesson learned.

Ok, another lesson learned is to figure out the size of video I can post. I cut it down, but still too much. Don’t want to mess with much editing. YouTube it goes.

Here are closeups of the left and right side. I’d guess the right side is last tick is 3/1000ths away from the edge. I might have placed it closer if I tried. I have a digital calipers and checked the gap. About the thickness of Quill premier series yellow legal pad paper. That’s over six inches.
