Lash is a script to partially compensate for the backlash of the tool head.<br>
 <br>
The lash manual page is at:<br>
<a href="http://www.bitsfrombytes.com/wiki/index.php?title=Skeinforge_Lash">http://www.bitsfrombytes.com/wiki/index.php?title=Skeinforge_Lash</a><br>
 <br>
The lash tool is ported from Erik de Bruijn's 3D-to-5D-Gcode php GPL'd script at:<br>
<a href="http://objects.reprap.org/wiki/3D-to-5D-Gcode.php">http://objects.reprap.org/wiki/3D-to-5D-Gcode.php</a><br>
 <br>
The default values are from the settings in Erik's 3D-to-5D-Gcode, I believe the settings are used on his Darwin reprap.<br>

The following examples lash the file Screw Holder Bottom.stl.  The examples are run in a terminal in the folder which contains Screw Holder Bottom.stl and lash.py.<br>

This brings up the lash dialog.<br>
