I have a gantry style homemade machine.  2 or so years ago I went about
trying out the gantrykins to correct skew.  After fiddling with it for
awhile, one poster here said that prior to messing with a software solution
for a hardware problem, I should first go about tuning the machine and
adding shims where possible to correct the shew as much as possible, only
then should I resort to the gantrykins fix.

Fortunately, I took that advice and spent the time (less than 2 hours) and
I fixed the skew and never had to resort to using the software solution.

Are you sure that you have done all that is practical (in both a time and
materials way) to correct the hardware issue first?

Just another way of considering the problem.
