+====== Extruder ======
+  - Use calipers or a ruler to measure 100mm along the filament from the extruder opening and make a mark on the filament with a permanent marker
+  - Use calipers or a ruler to measure 110mm along the filament from the extruder opening and make a mark on the filament with a permanent marker
+  - Use calipers or a ruler to measure 120mm along the filament from the extruder opening and make a mark on the filament with a permanent marker
+  - Heat the nozzle to 200C
+  - Move the Z axis to 50mm
+  - Extrude 100mm of filament
+  - Use calipers or a ruler to measure from the extruder opening to the first visible mark
+    - If all three marks are visible then it is under extruding so subtract the value measured from 100 to get the actual extruded length
+    - If only two of the marks are visible then it is over extruding so subtract the value measured from 110 to get the actual extruded length
+    - If only one of the marks are visible then it is really over extruding so subtract the value measured from 120 to get the actual extruded length
+  - Calculate the new extruder steps
+    - New Steps = (100 / Actual Length) x Current Steps
+  - Change the steps value
+====== X And Y ======
+  - Clip a piece of paper to the build plate
+  - Move the X carriage to a location over the paper
+  - Attach a pencil to the X carriage with a rubber band
+  - Move the X carriage 100mm in the X direction
+  - Move the X carriage 100mm in the Y direction
+  - Move the build plate 50mm in the Z direction
+  - Measure the length of both lines with a ruler or calipers
+  - Calculate the new steps value
+    - New Steps = (100 / Measured) x Current Steps
+  - Change the steps value
