Floating Z
i got it to start a print but boy is it a mess. nothing like my other printer with Klipper ( Voron cube) So I can see right off that z is way off this is a 0.12 mm print. would this be the setup off the z motors? ALso what could cause that wavy effect. The first layer goes down printy well but after that its a mess. any ideas.

Check that the pitch of your lead screws matches the klipper settings
Or if you used 0.9 deg steppers, you also need a different rotation distance
0.9 instead of 1.8 would cause a smaller print though, not higher
They are 1.8 degrees (X and Y are 0.9 and have 400steps) so this use default values. I tried to move z by 1mm and instead it moves 2 mm. So if they where 0.9 they would have moved less not more.
Did you source your lead screws yourself?
it was rotation distance set to 4 where it should be 8. Now i tested a 1mm move and it correct. Wikll try a print in a while. Thanks for your help.
Ah yes the screws where one I already had on hand.
Ok this is the first real test not to bad but still has a lot of work. Checked all nuts and bolts but I can'nt get my belt tension the same. In anyone has suggetions, Thanks.
