Re: Z Home at X=100 Y=100 - 9 years ago
Thanks, all for the G code solutions. What I guess I was not clear on is I would like to add this to the Marlin 'Auto Home' function under the Prepare menu. I run this printer almost exclusively using the SD card. Thanks again, Paulby Paul McCoy - Reprappers

It does seem too ease to confuse Slic3r with different file names like a different G-code name from the STL name. What do you mean by "objects are manifold"?

Bad hidden holes and through hole bosses - 11 years ago
Folks, I am having problems printing hidden/blind holes for self-tapping screws and support bosses in the mating part. It seems like the issue is with infilling or perimeters. The shoulder bosses are about 6 mm tall while the housing walls are about 25 mm tall. The screw holes are 2 mm ID (as required by the assembly) and are in a 8 mm OD boss. I have tried perimeters from 1 to 7 and infillinby Paul McCoy - Slic3r
