Does anyone know how I can lower the build plate after pausing in order to insert an object in a void?

If you have a specific place you would like to pause, I would split the GCode at that point and do a a little custom coding to move the z-axis down->pause for placement->return z-axis up->continue print.
Thanks GOC, Ive got a guy in our 3DP club here at the library that will be able to do it.
Merry Christmas
Thanks again, GOC
The next day it dawned on me, that it's as simple as hitting PAUSE and CHANGE FILAMENT, which lowers the build plate. It's not exact, but just going by the % of the print done, it was good enough for what I wanted to do.
I checked your Blog, some good tips.
On the use of painters tape, as you probably know there are two or three grades as far as how long it can be left on before it takes finish off. I don't know if another grade might work better. For 3M Brand see- http://www.scotchblue.com/wps/portal...esources/Five/
Frog has a couple as well.
