Robert, that worked a treat. The spanner could do with being a little longer for more leverage though :-)

Am loving the build!! Thanks to everyone at Ooznest..

Eccentric-Spacer-6mms should be adjusted until there is a small amount of friction between the Solid-Wheel & Extrusion.

I am not sure what a small amount of play should be. How can this be measured when the lead screws are stationary and the wheels cannot be turned? Does this mean that the wheels should be loosened to the point that they can slightly rotate when turned with the hand while the lead screw are still stationary?

Just following the instructions:

Keep turning until the Stepper-Motor clicks over.

Keep turning, just before the point that the Stepper-Motor clicks over is the correct amount of tension for the Lead-Screw.

So I have understood this correctly, turn until the stepper motor clicks over once, and then continue turning and stop just before it clicks over a second time?

Robert, thanks for the quick reply. I will endeavor to read a few steps further before posting in the future… Am loving the machine build !!

The limit switch wires run up the length of the X-Plate-Front. When inserting the Extrusion-D, this potentially rubs on the wires. Would you suggest maybe glueing a small rubber wire sheath onto the face of the plate to feed the wires through to reduce any possible wear?

Same problem as the previous comments. A defect Nyloc nut caused the hex to wear out on the bolt head. Saw the comment that an extra four 30mm M5 button head bolts are provided - thanks. Are additional M5 Nyloc nuts also included?
