ok so after some trouble shooting Colin has been helping me with... i switched the x and y drivers.. and then the skipping switched to the x axis... then i switch the now X driver with the Z axis and im no longer having the skipping issue im printing the full cube right now and it seems to be doing pretty well... ill post a pic of it as son as it is done. Though my extruder keeps getting stuck, the gear stops moving and i need to give it a little nudge every once in a while. hopefully i can get this all sorted out soon! seems like its getting there. thanks for the help guys!
