So, that video only covers physical construction, not programming, but he's going to make a video about programming soon.
However, it turns out that my X and Z motors were switched. There is nothing in the instructions that says anything about the motor orientation being clockwise or counter clockwise, so I switched my X and Z motors. Not that that should affect my printer's ability to find G29, etc, because the towers are equidistant, and he said he was able to print (his prints were just mirrored) but that will probably help in the future.

Haha, sorry. But everything else is still the same. So that still doesn't answer why my printer would be acting the wrong way.

Move your effector in the middle, to be sure it's off endstops and copy-paste the results of your M119 and M205.

OK now when I type in G28, my motor makes quite a loud ruckus and causes that motor's belt to shake a lot. I tried it with both your Repetier FW and the old Marlin FW, resetting to m502, m500 each time.
NOW what's the problem?

If you switched your motors under live 12v there is a chance that you need new stepper drivers or RAMPS.

Nothing was triggered, so I figured that meant it was inverted.
If the endstops are engaged (The switches are pressed and the red LEDs are on) and I hold a piece of metal to the Z probe, (The red LED comes on) then type M119, the report is
x max triggered
y max triggered
z min open
z max triggered
So, I still need to set Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false ?

Right, you have to invert your z-probe in the firmware. Normally it's open, with metal - triggered. It will fix everything.

No, that's what I meant. See I edited my last post. It's already set to false and all the others are set to true. So, do I need to make it true? Or just leave it as false?

No, that still caused the motor to try and move past the endstop, causing loud noise the belt to shake.

I'm sorry, but I'm giving up. I'm searching a black cat in the dark room with you. You change firmware like gloves during our discussion. I think we're adjusting my repetier configuration but you keep masturbating with Marlin. That's it, sorry.

Alright, I promise from here on out, no more Marlin. ONLY YOUR REPETIER FIRMWARE.
The output is as such when no red LEDs are on and the printer is not plugged into the wall:
15:37:32.021 : endstops hit: x_max:L y_max:L z_max:L Z-probe state:H

I use a combination of the paper test, and using the same principal (as suggested by paul_delta) I will often use a 2.5mm allen key to set the Z Home position. For the bed itself I went out and got three small levels (about 3" long, think they were "line levels") and leveled the bed to the world using springs under the mounting screws. I then use the G1 Z## F4000 command while at the edges of the bed to find discrepancies to adjust Delta Smooth Rod Offset.

Yes, each endstop responded with H when activated, same with the z probe.
I have to leave for now, but once again, thanks for the help (and patience). I will return tomorrow.

I'm back. So, should the z probe be H (High) or L (Low) when triggered? Because mine reports High
