Preload wizard - what am I looking for?

[mhackney]

How V1 is your V1? Does it still have the Steve's extruder? If so, I can guarantee that the default extruder e-steps were not very good. I also have a V1 but seriously upgraded over the years.

Cheers,
Michael

while I am a KISS user for some time, the new 1.6 version, and its new wizards had me stumped.

Hear, hear!
So beautiful, So difficult, So extreme, so even beyond expert. So not KISS.

I also am a little lost on what to look for to find the sweet spot for this PETG.

Is it this area here which works out to 0.1844?

So difficult to tell from your photos; on the first one, I would have said about half way. But the third photo, you seem to have it just about spot on.

Thanks for verifying. Going off another post I tried the "horizontal" angle macro pic (last one) which seems to give a more defined, although differing area. My path is very short with a Nimble directly on top of an E3D V6. Can't make out much difference by eye until almost the top.
