    hmm yes pics hmmm trying to find some. My guess is that I lost them when my phones sd card crfashed and burned a month or two ago unfortunately. Be nice if I could link youtube videos. Is there a way? If I can't find the pics might do them for a redesign.

    Hello,

    could you please share the firmware I am currently having issues with the z axis drift where the carriage starts drifting toward home location. also the rounds are not coming out right. did you have any of these issue?

    I also had a problem with rounds. I can dig up the code if you like but I have noticed that the repetier firmware as options for H-Bot setups as well.

    So you recommend going through and using the repetier software for h not firmware. I have not tried this bit have been leaning in this direction. If it's not too much trouble could you share the marlin code as well I want to know more about this issue I'm experiencing.

    the repetier has a nice web configuration utility that includes the H-bot so it shouldn't be a problem to setup. I will see if I can find the code that was used but in the mean time my solution was pretty simple in the stepper.cpp file near the bottom where it writes out to the steps to the actual pins I simply wrote out to both motors in the correct direction to get the intended direction.

    I like the simplicity of the H design. Does it work great? What firmware do you need for running this on Duet.
