First you need to understand the difference between MACHINE co-ordinate system (set by homing) and WORKPLACE coordinates system (XYZ zero set in...
My Great Nephew (8) is into dinosaurs, this T rex head engraved plaque is a Christmas present for his bedroom wall. [ATTACH]
There are different "dialects" of g-code. It is important to use a post processor that creates g-code suitable for your c. What controller,...
Yep, could well be, but more likely if it's building up in the vicinity of the limit switch wiring. If you have any functioning vacuum try to keep...
If I'm reading this right you think that using absolute mode means that the machine will always go to the exact co-ordinates in the g-code....
First question - which post processor are you using with Fusion - you should be using this one;- docs:software:fusion360 [OpenBuilds...
As @Giarc said - cheap calipers are often only accurate to +/- 0.2 mm anyway. Alex.
I notice your g-code file extension is *.tap and there are some codes missing from the header of the g-code file that I would expect from a grbl...
You are not losing steps - once you have lost them you don't get them back again so you would not return to the starting position. The test you...

After moving your homing switches to the corner you want to home to you will need to follow point 3 in @David the swarfer's post. To (hopefully)...
Could you please explain what you expect to happen? G90 (absolute movement mode) and G91 (incremental movement mode) wouldn't stop an axis moving....
Maybe, depends what you want. Message me with details of what you want at looking for. Alex.
I just looked back at your grbl settings. The default MACHINE home position is the back, right, up corner - the maximum dimension for each axis....
Exactly, although, to avoid confusion, I always refer to MACHINE HOME and workplace ZERO. From what I have read in your post I believe your issue...
See @Misterg's post above - when you switch on a grbl controller you automatically create a machine home wherever the machine is at power on, so...
That is a "feature" with some laptop chargers. They create a link between MAINS EARTH and DC GROUND. This can happen with the earth connection to...
You must get travel directions correct first, then correct the homing directions. Alex.
Well it literally means that there is a g-code word in your file that doesn't belong. Either there is a problem with the software you used to...
The first thing to check is the wiring to the X stepper, looking for one loose connection or faulty wire. An intermittent connection can cause...
