    Chris I can't say enough about how much this has changed my printer. I got a new inductive probe and an SKR Mini E3 V2 and have been fighting getting the bed leveled. Even with an automatic 25 point probe before each print I was struggling to find the right height on my not-flat bed. I followed your instructions and the very first print nailed the first layer with no intervention from me. This has truly made a huge difference for me. Thanks for putting this together.

    I just had to comment on how appreciative I am for your effort on educating us about 3d printers. You have got me through some hard times with setting up my printer. Little did I know the deep waters I was entering when I upgraded my ender 3 pro motherboard from a silent creality one to the skr 1.4 turbo. I had no previous experience with visual code or g-codes etc. But watching your tutorials with your easy to understand method of teaching has helped me sooooo much. I still have a long way to go but I'm starting to understand this stuff now and it isn't as daunting as when I began. Thank you.

    Back in 2016 or so I was watching the Marlin GitHub issues and PRs daily. As I recall, Roxy was one of the key developers on this feature, and it was great watching the progress. I moved away from having a printer that used “straight” Marlin, so never got a chance to test the working version. Very impressive to see it all come together.

    I found interesting thing about my anycubic kossel. It has fixed bed, so it twists different with different temperature. So I decided to calibrate ubl for each type of filament. And then you can use filament override options in prusa slicer. Works great.
    I did delta calibration on cold bed. Then I preheat it for 65 / 75 / 95 Celsius and made a UBL for each one. Difference between 65 and 95 Celsius is really visible.

    Great video, altough - the G29J - I found to mess up the actual saved mesh by "adjusting" to the same number for all spots (visible after print with G29 T). So I use G29 L1 G29 A (just to be sure) - and then my first level takes benefit of that long G29 bed level we do in this process. I run Marlin 2.0.x.bugfix, might be something who differs from 1.1.9

    Hey Chris, awesome video!
    It helped me a lot setting up UBL on my SKR v1.3.
    I am struggling with the mesh editing feature though: when I try to edit points via the LCD menu the carriage doesn't move in the pattern your's does on log (from left front to right and then one row over) but instead some different location often outside my print area... crashing... I homed before editing with G28 and have RESTORE_LEVELING_AFTER_G28 enabled.
    I also have Z_SAFE_HOMING and ENABLE_MESH_EDIT_GFX_OVERLAY enabled with a BTT Full Graphic Smart Controller Display.
    Regarding the erratic pattern one more thing: when I issued the G29 P1 command (after G28 of course) it didn't move in a spiral pattern as described on the marlin documentation but in a very random pattern. It completed though without the two rows the probe just couldn't reach. I populated those with G29 P3 and checked with G29 T - like you explained - and everything looked ok... but trying to edit these extrapolated points via LCD did not work (the others also didn't...). Furthermore moving my nozzle via pronterface close to the points in question and issuing a G29 P4 initiated the edit menu on the lcd but doing a G29 T after that showed the brackets in a different row (same column) at least close to where the probe sits and not the nozzle... do you have a clue what might be going on?
    Thanks in advance.

    I love your videos.. its just geeky enough for the tech guys and simple enough for the noobs..
    HOWEVER : I would like to see more stuff t the end.. how to fix things when it goes wrong.. like on this video .. if your inset is not right and the props tries to prob off the edge of the bed or if you have a large gap between your BLTouch and the nozzle and it can't reach all the spots.. G29P3 GUESSES don't work well when things like that fail.. and its tough to fix from octoprint..
    also some vids on when octoprint goes haywire... cause octoprint modifies geode on the fly and streams it to your printer kinda like clipper . and Canada a bunch more tuning of footprint to do.. (like if your octoprint bed size is different than your Cura settings.. and octoprint clips edges square when you actually have bed space ( full bed problems) or plugins that show you the bed visualizing and it actually mods the code..

      Its exactly the same on a delta except that you have to change two lines in the config_adv, saying it must probe from -radius to + radius instead of from 0 to radius, as will otherwise only probe the right back corner. UBL was usefull to me as was faster then the full calibration and my full calibration sometimes "tilted" my bed. but I traded UBL for linear advance (on an 8 bit, you have to choose with a discount dicplay) and a flatter bed now.

    Can you recommend a controller I can fit instead that works well with the latest Marlin release for UBL?

    Chris, couple of more comments. One thing to look out for is if you set Z safe home, you will prime in the middle of the bed when you use G26 G10. So you should first do G28, then G0 X0 Y0 Z2, then do the G26 P10. Also, my print looked like cr*p because I am using a bowden setup and I don't think Marlin does retraction unless you have firmware retraction setup. I changed to firmware retraction and the G26 test print looked much better.

    I salvaged a FLSUN i3 Plus and was able to load it with Marlin 1.1.9 that the seller provided for this particular printer and performed autolevel with the blue box inductive sensor it has. At first I found it needed -1 offset and it printed perfectly. I think I presed the dial in some of the, for me, misterious options like "load" or "save" or "reset" EPROOM and now it prints in mid air! Will hav to start again from the begining as it seems lots easier than this procedure. But lets see if I feel confidnt enough to venture in such a cumbersome process. And I was going to start trying to avoid stringing in prints! Can you make a tutorial for that also? Best regards!

Their use (on a temporary basis) would eliminate the extra electronics for a leveling probe. More importantly this would reduce print head weight. Also they would work with any print bed material.

    Hi Chris, I set up UBL with the help of your video and have a question. I had to remove the print bed on my printer and figured I would run a G29 again to see if I changed the mesh. I had to refamiliarize myself with the parameters and found it has a K parameter that is suposed to compare a current mesh with a saved mesh. The Marlin website only shows the syntax as [L]. I can't seem to figure out what that means and they don;t give an example. Do you know how to specify comparing a newly acquired mesh to the mesh in slot 2?

Either using M500 will crash the printer which even stays crashed when powered back off/on (have to install firmware.bin again get it to work at all) or Z behaves weirdly when trying to set Z-offset. Making Z go up (any amount) will cause it to crash in to the top of the printer, or making Z go down will cause it to crash in to the bed (any amount will cause Z to just keep going).

      This is the downfall of UBL, it sounds silly, but you have to be almost level before UBL will work. Run bilinear from the terminal and look at the map, try to level out your X as close as you can. Once that is really close, try UBL again.
