    Another homing issue.

    When trying to home my machine, the a axis bounces off the sensor twice. i assume it is still squaring my machine right, but i don't like the double bounce, and that seems like it should not happen.

    Also, i am about to put my bumpers on. when you auto square the machine do you want to put the bumpers exactly where the machine hits the homing limits?

    Thanks for the help, here is a video of the problem in action. https://youtu.be/0rT3xZUT-OU

    You probably need to edit your homing script. The default script homes the A axis last, which may be what you're seeing.
