Comments
it seems to be a great thing, as grbl seems to be. any info about getting it from europe?
I have no idea, you should contact the nice folks at Synthetos!
How do would someone disable one of the axis and exclude it from the homing procedure?
Thanks!
If you want to discuss the Grbl software, you should join the conversation in the github issue-tracker
