JamesK,
The print volume is 410 X 410 X 250
It is good to have it if you need it. I have utilized the larger volume about 4 times in the last year. For the most part the majority of my prints hover in the 200 mm range. This printer got me in the world of 3D printing. I have learned enough to get myself in trouble. I will build another smaller one that will be all about precision and high resolu

Your are right "the_digital_dentist" it is the width of the lines. On the diagonals, on the first and third quadrant of the star lines the extruded width in between the melted material is larger. It has been driving me nuts all morning. I checked the squareness of the bed and the motion of the Y axis to make sure it is perpendicular to the X axis, and unfortunately it is...

Hi, I posted somewhere else as well, but it seams that this is the right place to post my question.
I am new to this forum so if this is not the right place to ask my question let me know where to go instead.
