Anet A8 Z-axis alignment tool

Remix of one my simplest but most useful tools.

By keeping your stepper motors in alignment you very rarely need to level your bed.

One time only:
1. Home your z-axis
2. Turn off your steppers
3. adust your motors by rotating them and put the guide in place.
4. adjust the motors such that the guide just moves freely on both sides.
5. Home again
6. Level your bed

After changing filament or when suspecting the bed is not level do steps 1-3.

Only time I really have to level my bed any more is when I move the printer.



This is inspired by the tool listed in the remix source files but makes a slight improvement over them: The length is no longer arbitrary, it approximates the height of the motors after a z-home. This will save you a little extra time. And the handle makes it a little easier to... handle.
