Trying to make ABL for rotary engraver (1 reply)

Hi,

I recently built a rotary laser engraver with some part laying around and as you probably know, it is never finish and always need new upgrades.

To make this short, I am trying to make ABL create a mesh that follow an oddly shaped wine glass. I aim at probing X at multiple points then copy the "line" created to every Y point creating a mesh that varies only in the X direction.

The problem so far is that the "line" is so crooked that marlin stops probing after 2 or 3 points.

I am looking for someone who know more than me about marlin coding to tell me if this is a limitation or a misconfiguration by my part. If it can be modified or implemented and if so, where should I start looking. Or maybe someone already did this but I could not find anyting.

I have been able to make it move as I wanted by manually modifying the mesh but it takes ages. So I know marlin can handle a weird mesh like this.

Thank you very much for your time and have a nice day!
(Sorry, english is not my first language.)
