You used a heatsink to "calibrate" Z?
You need to do two things: set the Z=0 position and set steps/mm. Put a piece of paper under the nozzle and lower the extruder until it just grabs the paper. Set Z=0.
Now print a part that's exactly 100 mm tall, and measure it. Use that to set steps/mm.

He could do a 'Vase Mode' test at the same time. So he knows also about it's extrusion.
