iMakerbot Start Sequence

This is the end of the the start sequence for my Makerbot. Before this I manually center it on the platform and it moves over to the corner. It then starts heating up to 200ºC. The video starts from where it has heated up all the way. It then does a test extrusion and starts printing.

 

Here's the thing on thingiverse: www.thingiverse.com/thing:3777

 

Here's my start file:

G21 (Metric FTW)
