Then you don't have anything in the front access area. smile

The following/attached picture is the result of two small changes.  The first was a ~10% change in the extruder steps/mm to reset my multiplier back to 1.  The second was to set all of my acceleration values in my RH printer settings to 2000.  Speed is around 60 mm/s.  The idea is that most of the banding/moire is actually coming from vibrations in the x-y plane as the extruder is moving around and causing jerks which then cause the bed to slide-bounce in the x-y direction.  I'm entertaining the idea of putting another z slide right up front to reduce this.  It would mean pulling prints out from the side of the printer but that's something I can live with if the quality is there.

This is also with the OEM 5/16" diameter Z.  I'll eventually swap for an M5.
