I could have gone into OpenSauce with my old ... very hacky... printhead pictured in the main gallery. There were many issues with it that I've mentioned before. Well, I have my first completed 2.0 version ready for testing this weekend. You can see the "focus" mechanism, which is really just going to place the printhead consistently .5mm away from the paper. That and the new metal mask, should produce clean squares. Well... we'll find out tomorrow.
