has anybody generated their own start/end scripts for a makerbot gen 4 machine, I'm not having a lot of luck on this
i have an Ultimate TOM built by Jetguy, I've tried copy and paste out of maker ware and writing my own
and so far not great results (actually some bad results)
copied from 3Drasle' post
make it easier to find and i will add to it if i have any luck
