I finally have the printed pieces in hand and I'm starting assembly. These are versin 1.2.4 pieces. However, i'm having an issue with the xy head assembly. The bearings are sliding very well on the smooth rod when not in the mount but when put into the head assembly they are slightly out of alignment and grab. For the bottom pair of bearings I managed to loosen up the mount enough (by prying open the "clamp" a bit") that the two bearings are able to align themselves and now they move well. However, this approach isn't an option with the top pair. My plan now is to use a dremel to carve out the bearing mount area a bit so that the two bearings are able to align themselves. Of course, not having the option of being able to print a replacement, I'm a bit hesitant.
Any suggestions, perhaps a better way to loosen things up, before I jump in and start making modifications?

Also, check the value of Z_MAX_POS in configuration.h and raise it if it's lower than your real Z travel.
I haven't seen this with marlin before (I 've seen it though with grbl), but I always had this defined to be larger than my real Z travel.
The reasoning is that, while trying to reach home (during homing), it travels more than (Z_MAX_POS - Z_MIN_POS) and it stops because it thinks it's gone out of bounds...
Heh, it's a shot in the dark but you don't lose anything to try it

Hi, I use a cheap "aliexpress" e3d clone too.
Look like u are using a too low PLA temp. I usually use 200° or 205° without heated bed, and 195° with heated bed.
Also, check that the temp. sensor is in good contect with metal. If not use alu foil (cooking one!) to made good contact.
Hope it help.
