Re: The problem with the calibration

Luxor, are you using an ATLAS 3D kit?  If so, you should not need to modify the location settings.  If the model is too short, then your camera Y value is likely incorrect or the camera is misaligned.  If your model is too wide or too skinny, then the laser X values are incorrect or the lasers are misaligned.

Re: The problem with the calibration

You can make your own calibration tool, and all you'll need is a inkjet printer, and a CD jewel case.  Take a look at the link below.

The checkerboard pattern is 1/2" squares, but you can also make it 1/4" squares for finer calibration.  After I printed it, I glued the paper to the face of the CD case.  When you partially open the case, it stands up on its own.  I like it better than the original calibration thingy.

To print or, 3D print, that is the question...
SD3 printer w/too many mods,  Printrbot Simple Maker Ed.,  FormLabs Form 1+
AnyCubic Photon, Shining 3D EinScan-S & Atlas 3D scanners...
...and too much time on my hands.
