This requires homing to be working correctly, which is why I have been pushing for the fixes in firmware.

Slic3r also works best when the the extruder steps/mm is set properly.

I want to do a big Repetier tutorial, but I keep thinking up projects and trying to do them all at once.  I've still been running pronterface just because I'm used to it and want to get things printed, but I'll try to get switched over to Repetier this week and work with it more consistently.

Like the netfabb engine.

We realize that the needs of Solidoodle users may be a little different from the average Reprapper. Tell us all about what you'd like to see.

We are looking for suggestions for:
-Firmware
-Pronterface (GUI and core)
-Skeinforge

If any of you have custom Slic3r profiles, or Repeteir host tutorials, this is the place to bring it up.
