The source file left a lot to be desired. I have YET to have anyone hand me camera ready art.

I found one I think will work on thingiverse…but thanks man!
I just finish making my lower, was a lot of work but now I am ready to engrave it, great idea with make a jig to hold it. They charge way more when you order lowers engraved.

We do. You just have to ask you machine for it. It is tailored to your machine if you want to maintain precision. I blacked out my lid camera a long time ago because I was tired of maintaining it. I use a coordinate grids now and can perfectly print on a corkscrew anywhere in the bed while my screen is blacked out.

Um yeah - I missed seeing this before. Huh? Can you elaborate?
Lol, its just when I am about to print a lot of marble. I power it up and let its do its calibration and then put masking tape over the lid camera and its strip just so I don’t have to clean it as much. When engraving marble slabs my GF basically becomes a dust chamber. Its not like I would be able to see anything out of the lid camera after a print anyways and so I just cover it up so its nice and clean when I power it on next.
But the machine has a gridable space. So you dont need the image from the lid camera if you are not trying to visually line it up as opposed to coordinates.
