XY home position

From Dan’s answer to your question a couple of weeks ago, there doesn’t appear to be a physical or visual home/origin:

That being said, creating your own positioning jig should be really simple. Here are a few options…

  • Using a set of welding magnets (being very careful not to damage your grid)
  • Using a set of 1-2-3 Milling Blocks (depending on the height of your material – don’t let the head impact these)
  • Using your Glowforge to cut a jig out of cardboard, acrylic, plywood, whatever

Hope this helps… :grinning:

Btw, the GF staff other than Dan doesn’t routinely answer questions on the forums, but the community at large has an amazing body of knowledge that you may find handy. Expressing a desire to have GF staffer answer your question isn’t typically effective…
