They would cross in the center. Maybe you can make it so that the filaments do not touch each other in all valid cariage positions. If you mind the small non-linearity that much then just make the druby hercek - Delta Machines

Extrusion is a movement command (G0, G1), if you did not home your printer first (G28) it tries to home to get an idea about head position.

Since you should disconnect power when changing pololu trimpot, you can disconnect the unused motors as wel. You should connect / disconnect motors only when it is not powered too. Edit: Aslo even when steppers are not moving they consume power. So if you wanted to measure it on the power source there is no way except disconnecting all the other motors. If you wanted to use this approach, then lby hercek - Delta Machines
Och and you can increas the maximum ±18° wiggle angle to ±30° angle by filing the rims of the angle ball joint socket. But it is still probably not enough for you and you may need to replace the steel socket with a magnetic socket.by hercek - Delta Machines

I think DIN 71802 also specifies what is the minimum force to pull out the ball screw. You can study DIN 71802 specification for more details. Notice the first picture.

You can get steel balls at the end of a screw from DIN 71802 ball joints: Here is a picture how does it look: And even a non-angular version: All these have only 18° angle, but if you connect it to a 3dPrinted plastic ball housing which will contain a cylindrical magnet then you get much better angles and the magnet pole will always be pointing to the centre of the steel ball, i.e. the sticky fby hercek - Delta Machines

I have never seen repetier. So I cannot really comment, but as for as your point 1: You did not write what steps per one motor revolution you have defined in firmware, what is one step angle of your motors, and what mictrostepping do you have set in your electronics (or your config if you can control microstepping from software). Maybe that is the thing you do not have defined correctly.by hercek - Delta Machines
Hopefully you do not have skewed the towers. That changes things and what I'll write does not apply. So lets assume that your towers are all parallel/equidistant with each other (if you drilled both top and bottom plate at once this should be easy to achieve). Your tower locations and diagonal rod length can be wrong. You can go on and write down all the queations for the model in the firmwareby hercek - Delta Machines
