Further testing required, but encouraging results.

So this is now maybe a half step beyond proof of concept in that I’ve been able to make a successful print using the sprung bed leveling posts as end stops. My hardware is still very crude, the firmware I’m using is meant for the #printrbot Metal Simple (the Y axis is reversed) and I have yet to try it with the bed heated, but it’s working dammit. I’ll try to write it up soon, but I may wait until I’ve got upgraded to more elegant/adjustable bed leveling posts (I’ve got some ideas) and done more testing. For now, just a video of the first successful test print (first layer).
