Have gotten Machine Settings/Calibrate Axis results just under 1.0mm but not much tighter. After much adjusting the machine is square, the two Y Axis belts seem to be of similar tightness, the X Axis belt seems to be about the same tension as the Y Axis belts. The Gantry moves freely. Still have issues with a simple calibration test. Is this a backlash issue, mechanical issue or a settings issue? Ran a homemade test as seen in the pic. Also included a pic of the result.
The problem you have is based uppon belts on the Y axis and or the squareness of X vs frame
notice too the flatness of the top and bottomof th biggest circles. thats wher eyou are losing steps.
I would suggest reviewing all belts, sprockets, eccentrics and alike. all could need a bit more review

Will do! I appreciate very much.
Took some work and fiddling, learned a lot during the process. Viola! Circles are circles, squares are squares, and a clean laser all produce really nice results!
Thanks Gil
