Hardware

• screen is Big Tree Tech TFT35-E3 V3.0
• mainboard is Big Tree Tech SKR Mini E3 V2.0
• power supply is Mean Well RSP-500-24 (the good one, not first release of this printer that had a shitty one)
• Printhead is Micro Swiss Direct Drive and All-Metal Hot end
  • https://store.micro-swiss.com/collections/ender-5-plus/products/micro-swiss-direct-drive-extruder-for-creality-ender-5

• Probe is official BL-Touch (which is stock on the E5P)
  • it should be set and forget, don't think it needs to be recalibrated ever unless some hardware thing changes
  • can use 'babystep' feature to live z-adjust during printing
  • refer to this for setting the probe offset https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_1Kg45APko

Software

To use pronterface to control the printer, first power up the printer, then connect the usb cable to your computer. On win10 it should auto-detect and possibly install 'maple' (wtf that is lol). Baud 115200

Calibration notes

• using the built in e-steps I got 137.85 steps/mm
