You are not wrong, but… The extrusion motor movement needs to be synched to motion. While XY are not up to speed, the extruder motor needs to run more slowly to maintain layer thickness. So, whilst it is not geometrically an axis, it is synched to motion like a axis. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
