Dibond crashes at Z_max + X_min #61

The Dibond version crashes the extruder motor into the into the top z-bar clamp.

This has happened to me a couple of times now. When homing the z-axis while at X-min the extruder motor hits the top z-bar clamp. This prevents the limit-switch from being hit so the motors won't stop running. This causes the z-bar clamp to move out of place and messes up the calibration of the z-length. Steps will also be missed and this causes you to lose the levelling calibration. Also if you're not quick to turn the power of the other z-bar clamp will also be hit. I've replaced them both by now.

Here's a photo of this in practice:

I don't know if this is a known issue all ready, but I've opened up an issue here because today I found out this bug is also in the models:

Set these three lines almost at the top of main.scad:

X = 1 * X_travel / 2; // - limit_switch_offset;
Y = 0 * Y_travel / 2; // - limit_switch_offset;
Z = 1 * Z_travel;
