Homemade hexapod with EMC

I tried posting this to the emc-users list, but got no replies so far. I
thought I'd try here.

I've started building a hexapod on the cheap. Some photos:

How can I set up EMC to work with the geometry of my machine?

How do I tell EMC what the relationship is between steps in the stepper
motor and the length of the strut?

Is there a way to correct for inaccuracies in positioning?
