    I'm hoping for a bit of advice on this one...I recently crashed the X gantry into the side of the machine pretty badly. I set the origin wrong in Fusion, and then ran the program, with the hard limits off in GRBL. The lead screw is now a bit loose and makes noise and vibrates more than it should while operating. Can anyone provide any tips as how to troubleshoot and tighten the lead screw with minimal disassembly to the machine? I had the machine calibrated and running wonderfully until this bonehead move...Thank in advance.
