How to have the V0.2 automatically set Z offset when changing build sheets. (or maybe not so automatic)

[Rusty105]

So one of the main purposes of my V0.2 was to print parts for my other printers. I want to replace the PETG parts on my Switchwire with proper ASA/ABS parts, and print parts for the Trident 300 kit that was ordered. I am in no rush to build the Trident, it will be a Winter project for Feb/Mar 2025, or after the SW gets its new parts. I have printed some test parts already, and one inefficiency I can see is that I have to wait for the build sheet to cool down before I can release the ASA parts from the sheet. The build sheet is the Honey Badger Black Smooth PEI sheet, single sided. I want to be able to swap in a second sheet, same type, and start the next print. But how to get the Z offset correct? How can I automate the Z offset?

Thanks!
Rusty

Hi Rusty,
In the "how to" section from the "community documention", you can find many nice descriptions of how to achieve certain things. For instance https://docs.vorondesign.com/community/howto/Takuya/Klicky_Probe_AutoZ_Alternative.html describes what I think is exactly what you are after.

Have a look and if it is not exactly what you wanted, maybe you can find another one in the menus there.
Good luck.

This guy covers it for you. Personally, I ordered spare build plates so I have identical thickness when I exchange to keep things moving quickly.
