Ran the G29 calibration. here is the result

Played some more, and this is where I am at.

So, I think I got it. The data show ( I think ) that the bed is level (47.74 - 47.78 , just .04 low to high ). So I put double paper on the bed, baby z-stepped ( What about Bob ) down to where the paper just drags a little, then using the control panel, set z=0 ans saved to eeprom. That appear to to be it. I did not do the auto bed calibration, as that
Anyone disagree, please let me know. Also, I see people mention 'the math' and i dont know what that means. If anyone knows, please let let me know.


When using Repetier-Host, if the printer is at home, and I press the home button again, I get a pop-up saying "00 Your printer requested a pause. When I hit continue printing, I get a slow z movement down along with space music from 'Close Encounters Of The Third Time' until I reset the machine. Whats up with that?
