[WIP]

Hello traveler, I hope you had a great day and that I am not the one breaking your streak This is still in testing and designing phase and some things are missing or just rough sketched. Please be patient and if you are wiling to help, do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks! 

Here is a 🍪 for your next journey. 

[WIP}

 

Are you tired of wasting time trying to make your printer's bed as flat as possible? Have you even tried looking on the second page of the big G guy? That's rough. Look no more! Just print these fast and easy prints and start 'flattening' your bed as quickly as most nozzles do when encountering grid infill.

Print both objects and attach the [WIP] to your favorite screwdriver and put the gauge on top of your screw. 

Enable [screws_tilt_adjust] feature in your .cfg and then run  “SCREWS_TILT_CALCULATE”. Now when you need to turn a screw 6 minutes CCW, it won't be a guesstimate, just align the [WIP] on your screwdriver with the [WIP] on the gauge. It can't be simpler than that.

Check https://www.klipper3d.org/Manual_Level.html?h=z+endstop+c#adjusting-bed-leveling-screws-using-the-bed-probe for more info.

Print settings:

  • 0.2mm layer
  • 20% infill
  • 2 walls

If you have a special screwdriver / bed / printer / screw / fork of klipper that you want to use with this gauge then just ask in comments or do a remix yourself (There are STEP files available).
