First test carve has major issues

Hi mate, here’s a good thread re calibration:

For those that are handy enough to connect a couple wires and an LED to a battery, here’s how I use a small touchplate I made to zero out the Z axis on my workpiece. It’s easy to make this touchplate, and it helps immensely with multi-bit projects. It’s not as good as a 3-axis touchplate, but it works great for Z.

It goes over the belt and wheel tension plus a whole bunch of other useful stuff!
