Use Calibration Bro to calibrate your printers X & Y E-steps, and Skew. Its a free alternative to the Califlower and/or Calilantern.

Print Calibration Bro. Wait for it to cool down! Don't compromise the shape by removing it while hot & bendy. You should tune your flow and pressure/linear advance before using calibration bro.

Measure Calibration Bro, using the reference measurements in the images.

Follow the calculator link below and enter the measurements into the calculator

Take the results and use them to update your X & Y E-steps and to create a skew correction.

Calculator: A) You can use the attached excel workbook file that has images embedded, or B) clone a copy of the calculator from google docs. The docs version strips the embedded images.
