I have a silly question. When I home everything and then move my Y axis a negative amount it moves the bed toward the front. is that intended? The endstop is at the back like it is built. Everything seems to print fine just checking to see.

No, if everything is setup up right it shouldn't move that way. When it's homed,what does it report as the Y coordinate?

When homed with rep host it reads 0 for all axis. It homes at the front right of the bed.

I had my challenges with missing parts on the build, and the issue with crimped thermistor + broken wires on the hot end.. however.. have been printing and am super satisfied with this printer. I've been printing exclusively ABS. Information is power on these printers... I did a ton of reading, did all the calibration, and basically hit the ground running.
Anyone I've emailed at Folger Tech has been super nice and responsive, and replacements have gone out no questions asked and quickly. I'm a patient tinkerer and don't expect perfection. Really recommend this kit as a great base for 3d printing and especially Folger Tech's service.
I'm on the forked firmware from therippa, going to get to the servo + auto bed leveling tomorrow, hopefully.
Great thread. Hope I can contribute as much as I've taken from it
