    Great video. Yours is the first I've seen recommending leveling with 9 spots, instead of just the normal 5 spots (4 corners and center) the two concentric overlapping squares really help to get the bed completely level. I didnt download your file, I just moved my print nozzle to those spots, in the order you showed in the video. Bed came out leveled , with a magnetic removable bed line. And the other thing, saying that you want "a lot of friction" between the paper and print head, not a little, also helped my problem of the first layer not wanting to adhere evenly to the bed.. so thanks again!

      Same with me. I have to tighten on handwheel all the way, with another one so loose the handwheel is actually about to fall off.
      However, this is all irrelevant if you can't get your Z Offset set correctly. It would help if the video showed how this worked in conjunction with manual bed levelling and auto bed levelling. The latter determines a mesh so that it can compensate the Z position appropriately according to it's XY position.
      So, where exactly does the nozzle have to be for the Z Offset to be valid ?

    To level the bed, I believe Creality tells us to home the hot end, then disable the stepper motors to move from corner to corner and raise or lower these as needed. Problem is, when I follow this procedure I can never get the bed level the first time. It was infuriating. Then, I read an article someone wrote on the net. He said to stop using disable stepper motors. So, to move from corner to corner, I had to use the Move command. Doing it this way, I was able to level my bed the first time around! My print is perfect.

      I don't see why people say to disable the steppers. Surely, this would just make the Z axis loose and prone to moving up/down when you manually move the X axis ?

    Leveled the bed, preheated it and selected the file for my first Benchy test print. Watched in disbelief as the nozzle chiseled a perfect Benchy shape into the glass. For unknown reason(s) the z axis would not move up and didn't realize what was happening until it was too late. Thought I followed all the instructions. Changed the nozzle, but definitely need a new piece of glass. Will try to level the bed again using your files to level and calibrate. Any ideas why my nozzle dug into the glass? Cheers

I've tried cleaning the bed really thoroughly with alcohol and leveling like the previous steps. Any reccommendations? Maybe try extruding more filament at a time? what setting would I change for that?

    @workingTchr ปีที่แล้ว

    On my new Ender 3 Max there is the issue that even if I get bed leveling to come out with the paper test, the nozzle is still too high for good adhesion. I think something is going on with the z-axis shut off switch that's keeping it from going too low. In the latest Creality software for the Max, you can't set a negative z-axis offset to compensate. So I'm going to just get the CR Touch device, disengage the offset switch (as CR Touch tells you to) and let technology fix this for me.

    Nice video but.... you have to realize that Z axis end switch doesn't stop on the same point.
    I have small 3cm wheel mounted on Z Axis thread rod to see the moment where auto home stops. I've found that it stops on 2 exact positions. where one position is occuring is more often.
    The recipe for that is make a reference where the wheel is stopping more often (lower position is better) and do several auto home attempts to reveal if this point is still the same or not. Then notice the points. Do bed leeling on this noticed more occuring point.
    When print is started just watch the knob wheel in phase before extruder heat-up will do auto home. You have still time to cancel print in case that Z-axis rod will stop on bad point.
    In mine case the diference betweeen points is 0,6mm / 6 0,1mm steps.
    Let me know if your Z-axis switch is stopping threaded rod in the same position or not.
