ok autodesk 123d mirrored it ,but still open to suggestions

no - importing a mirrored image is a bandaid. The real solution is to correct your axis direction. Only one axis is reversed, and it's most commonly the Y. It's difficult to know since you didn't include a picture. When the Y is at the 0 position, the bed should be all the way to the back; a lot of people want to put it forward, but really you need to consider the position of the head - when the bed is fully back, the head is over the front edge or at the 0 position.

how do I change the home direction it homes to the front (mendel i1)

No, that wasn't what I was getting at - it was the endstop error that solved that particular thread (as J.B pointed out).

You need to make a change to the firmware config. I'm not where I can check, but configuraton.h has a setting something like INVERT_Y_AXIS (actually there's one for each axis). This is either true or false; you just need to change it from what it is to the opposite. You will also need to change your y end stop to the rear.

got it ,thanks
