Makerbot appears to not be working so well today
Makerbot is being a little weird today but it is likely to be my model. Had some issues with the half companion cube model but refactoring in the original blender into an obj file has resulted in some success.
 
* Attempting to build new version of the companion cube
* test extrusion stage fails. You can hear the motor trying to pull the plastic through but it stops too early.
* when starting the build, the extruder moves to the correct position and begins to extrude with a high pitched sound - the head doesnt move at this point and just dumps plastic in one place.
* have run this 3 times with no luck.
* attempted the triangle model. This works a little better but the test extrusion phase still doesn't seem quite right
