I am finishing up my mendelmax, and I am wondering what the opinions are on endstop placement.

The plans I am using call for min on z and y, but max on x.

It would seem to me that min would be better for all 3 x,y and z home, but I would like to get some opinions on this.

My z steppers are bottom mount steppers if that matters.

Thanks.

Most RepRappers use MIN for X, Y and Z.
Nophead has always used MIN for X and Y but MAX for Z.
He also explains why in his BLOG article entitled "The only way is up".

Thanks! Very interesting.

Just so I am crystal clear, Min would mean the side of the motor correct?

On my Sells Mendel that would be True!
I think it still holds for the Mendel MAX.
