Been awhile since I posted. I have printed so many cool things. I love this thing, however I am fighting a few issues but the main one is the z axis homing as mentioned above. It's driving me nuts every time I go to print its at a different hight. I would like to upgrade to an automatic leveling or figure a way to fix. I am pretty sure its a number of things. The end stop probably the main issue being it has some play in it. I need to put a new zip tie or redesign it altogether.

Yeah, you really need to ditch that zip tie if the current build guides are still suggesting that as the mounting method. A better method is to use bolts and nuts to mount the switches to the wood brackets. Switches can vary, but mine were sized for M2.5 screws. Others have drilled out the holes in the switch a bit to fit what hardware they had. Countersink the back side of the bracket so the screw head recesses into the wood. Put the nuts on the exposed side of the switch.
