    So got my eggbot all assembled and have done a few eggs. The only issue i have is when the pen moves from the top to the bottom of the egg in long lines it jitters some and makes uneven lines and sometimes overshoots the outline as a result. Anyone else seen this before? Do i need to adjust something on motor 1 for that?

    Have you adjusted the motor current yet?

    I haven’t adjusted anything yet. Didn’t know if motor current was the proper thing to adjust or if there was a default setting in Inkscape that needs adjusting.

    Yes, that’s a standard part of the setup procedure, under “making your first plot”:
