Re: 3d dremel idea g-code
I'm guessing you're asking for a gcode command which prints a straight line on the bed before beginning the print?
If you're new to this, you might want to go read this: http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code
I would add something like this at the end of your starting script:
G92 E0 ; make sure your E-axis is properly zeroed
G1 X-110 Y-70 Z0.3 F3600 ; move to the beginning of our extrusion line
G1 X-90 Y-70 Z0.3 F2.0 F1800 ; extrude the line to prime the nozzle (increase/decrease the E2.0 value if you want to extrude more/less)
