Easy X & Y squaring

Dear all,

after dissassembling my MINI for a full service in preparation of the next firmware, I had to square the X & Y axes again and was thinking: why not to use the skewed angle to fight the skew? The method is decribed on printables: XY squaring tool . It is quite simple: you just need a square and to print the tool. It worked pretty well for me and avoids the "print-check-set" repetitions I had to use the last time.

But I wonder:

  - Is the problem still present in the new MINIs?

  - Does anybody have a clue on the origin of the problem? I've checked all the printed parts, possible assembly errors, etc.., and found nothing wrong...

I hope this can help someone; happy printing!

RE: Easy X & Y squaring

I bought my mini as a kit and did few "reassemblies" 😀

I used regular metal 90 degree square tool to measure. Last time because I wanted to try out laser square but I see this is really nice tool. Shooting problem with it's own bullets! Thank you very much for sharing!
