Well done solidoodle!

wait wait. If I see it correctly, they don't actually make the bed level, they correct the actual plane by software ?
It'll be interesting to see if they get more hits of the heads with prints.

The actual gcode is altered. Obviously less than ideal, but what do you expect for the price.

In the software Mattercontrol you can allready see how it works.
It's a software bed levelling and it works fine !-

Still waiting for them to ship the Press I ordered months ago. Wonder how the printer will work with PLA since it's enclosed and doesn't have a extra fan.

Has anyone received a Press yet? I haven't seen any new videos on YouTube.

Not yet. They wont begin shipping until December 5th from the last email i got. Cant wait to get my hands on this tho, ill post updates once i have it.

wow, I thought no way that was going to print with a bed that crooked.

I mean yeah it's great it can, but really... you shouldn't create a system that allows for that much of a screw up lol
