Firmware options I am using
Since the Black Widow is a DIY and the Marlin firmware it runs on is always being improved there are some things I have done to my configuration.
Babystepping
Babystepping allows you to make minor changes when your print starts to change the height of your hotend to the bed. It is much easier to do this than to stop the print and reconfigure your Z end stop. Just add 3 or 4 lines of brim 10mm away from your part and you can adjust your Z height and enjoy your perfect 1st layer every time. Once a print has started you can access the menu by going to Tune - Babystepping Z
File - configuration_adv.h
#define BABYSTEPPING
Screen Timeout
If you have ever worked on the control panel and looked away for a second only to come back to the monitor screen you know the pain. The following will allow the screen to stay were you are longer especially when using your Babystepping:
File - ultracd.h
#define LCD_TIMEOUT_TO_STATUS 1500000
