I would opt for a, let the machine check out the Z-height as an option. Either a small hole in the bed, so the _not_heated_extruder can push into some small button, and thereby level itself to the correct height. I recall having seen such a feature on CNC machines. On a reprap it could be feasible as well, I have thought about doing it alongside the extruder head, problem though is that afterby pe5ed - General

I fail to see where in this forum we benefit from this, or is this the first really really finished 3D printed piece in the world or just your own succes ? But this could also be a poorly chosen subject line, is it ...by pe5ed - Look what I made!
My feeling is that the molex is not needed, or even unwanted. A better solution would be an RS232.. Still thinking about what would be an even better solution, as in cheaper. Unplugging would be mandatory if one expects to fiddle around with cnc/engraving, as well as other optionsby pe5ed - Reprappers
