I can grab the settings off mine if that helps to get you started?
Was not aware the compile would be any different either but I am very much a user for things Arduino so I downloaded the latest compiled version (actually think I am on "e").
Yes Marco is an inspiration and his Eleksmaker vids are what led me down this route. I am convinced the Eleksmaker is really a toy, good enough for most things and cutting bits of wood with humourous jokes but for serious stuff the mechanism is just too basic and without linear actuators there will simply be too much slop for serious application.
There are better machines about and the K40 seems to be one of those within my budget but I simply don't have the room for it... it would have to sit on some bench and i have precious little of that available as it is.
For now, knowing the Eleksmaker's limitations, I can work around them... I only use it for the odd PCB, so if production were involved I would always get them made (in my case) by JLC... prices for 10 off excellent quality boards just isn't worth doing a crappy job myself.
