okay it looks like the failure mode here is that grbl defaults to homing toward the max of each axis, calling that 0, and expecting you to give it negative coordinatesbut if you're at 0 and you forget this and issue g0 x50, it will try its best to comply and move 50mm past the end of the axis

switched X to home the other way, and we have first chips! this is me manually typing gcode into a terminal to drill four holes in a 100x100mm squarethe pair of holes further from the camera are at y=0. that's much further from the edge of the bed than i wanted. may redrill some mounting holes and move the gantry back to fix that

extended it out to a 4x3 grid, and tapped all the holes. 4x4 would fit if i could reach the back of the bedi don't trust these as precise references (threaded holes already aren't, but also the drill was flexing a bit while doing this) but they'll be plenty good to attach spoilboards or vises to#cnc #theWorkshop
