Do you really mean the Z axis? Isn't that run on the screw directly connected to the motor? I think perhaps it is X or Y. But let me know if I am mistaken.

I actually didn't do any other adjustments in skeinforge yet and other than a bit of flattening, my results seem spot on. I thought I had a problem at first because my calibration cube came out 22.5 mm when measured with calipers (instead of the expected 20) but it turns out that the model really is 22.5 mm when viewing in blender. This is the cube pointed to by the doc, so if anyone else prints that calibration cube, double check in blender before you measure with the calipers. That would have saved me days of headaches.
To answer some other questions that are hanging out there: you asked if I used supports for the 3D knot I made and the answer is no, I just built-it straight up. However, it made the raft and then made the rather thick base for the knot on top of that.
It looks like I will not make it to the build-out this Saturday since it is long sold-out, but there is a promise of a future one (if this is successful which it looks like it will be.) I will bring my bot to a Tuesday open house as Sasha encouraged.
