Glass Bed Clip - Monoprice MP Mini
Description
PDFI bought a standard glass printing bed off Amazon.ca because I couldn't find a reasonably priced one specific to the Mini here in Canada. I bought a 140x140mm glass bed and designed clips to hold it in place!
So far I've done a dozen prints on the new bed and it's been working flawlessly. Adhesion is great, and no more bed warping issues! There are two parts, a Left and a Right. You need to print two of each.
They assemble by taking the bed levelling screws, springs, and the spring guards right out from between the hot bed and the carrier. Then, put the spring assembly inside the underside of the clip, compress the spring, slide it in place, and finally put the screw in from the top. Now you can level your bed while not having to worry about taking the glass on and off!

Filament:
Solutech PLA
Notes:
I used PLA because that's all I had in stock, and I haven't had any issues in terms of warping from the heat or anything. I might suggest going up to a more heat-resistant material if you have it. I printed at .2 resolution because I didn't mind if the fit was a little tight, and I wanted the mod to be done quicker. Your mileage may vary.
