    OMG I have watched about 10-15 leveling videos all basically saying the same thing.. lower wait till you barely feel the paper drag and that will work
    NO !!! Your way worked I followed it to a "T" and after 6-8 tries with nothing but failures your way worked perfectly
    Thank you so MUCH!! I literally have another unit coming from Amazon now I can refuse it and send it back
    Thanks again.

    Axes is not spelled wrong, it's the plural form of axis.

    Hey there - you're amazing - I saw your video from a few years ago 3D printing a chain and want to do that myself for jewelry (but with more colorful components). Do you do consultations and/or custom builds for hire? What is the best way to contact you directly?

    Are you supposed to slightly see filament coming out of the nozzle if you look close enough?

    Interesting video. Newbie here. My critique when trying this is that my print head is 6 inches above the bed when power is turned off. Yours seems magically where it is supposed to be.

    Straightforward, however incorrect it is. No matter how you level or whatever machine or bed. The distance does matter USE A FEELER GAUGE!! Any hardware or autoparts store has for less than 5$

      fwiw, axes is just the plural of axis. so it's homing both the x and y axes.

    Please stop advising people to use random bits of paper……set the z offset to be high by the thickness of a known feeler gauge tram each corner to that feeler gauge and then reduce the z offset back to zero. The printer needs to know where the top of the print bed is….that is the zero point of the z axis….not the top of some random bit of paper.
