What frame skew causes this mesh
Any idea or guidance on where the skew may be. I built the VC3.1 with engineering squares and clamps so not sure what i did wrong.
Did I bent the bed? (300mm)
Hi. I had pretty fine for me 0.121 variation, but trying to fix my belt tension I:
1) reinstalled all metal idlers, trying to square the frame better
2) managed to crash bed into the print head (I accidentally clicked "set kinematic position" debug script).
Before my bed mesh was looking like so:...
Bed mesh fix results
So the printer itself is as squareas I think I can make it, but was wondering where am I at wrong?
Another bed mesh numpty
Hi all. Been working on this all night and just cannot seem to improve things much at all.
Started with bed mash last year down to 0.146 and real happy with it.
Upgraded to 3.1 and re-doing the mesh and cannot get it below 0.3. In actual fact, I have worsened it to 0.4 now.
Any suggestions from the heightmap would be fantastic. Seems like my gantry is bowed somehow? I have loosened all the screws and tightened them back up just .

Bed Mesh Not Loading
IRatrig VMinion - 8 months old
Not loading bed mesh after updating klipper resulting in no print adhesion in one corner, to close in the other. It appears that the bed mesh is simply not being used - checked for movement on Z axis - nothing.
Action 1 - printer.cfg file checked - No change
Action 2 - bed manually leveled over many hours - No change...
Is it good enogh?
Hi, I just finished basic setup of my V-Core 300mm and run a bed mech, does it looks good? What could be improved? Question is quite dumb, so - feel free to throw some useful doc/video which will answer my question.
New V-Core 3.1 500 Out of Square?
Well I thought I had built in square (I should have bought a bigger engineering square), but after running several bed mesh calibrations (before seeing the Square Mesh video and realizing I should have measured before adding the heater and top), it seems I am probably out of square . If I understand the video properly I need to raise the B corner, but it looks like more than that is going on here. Any opinions on what I need to adjust?
flipped bed mesh????
so after ALOT of researching and also testing, and help from a patient member we dont get the bed mesh to work at all..
but i just discovered something. when print, the top left corner of the bed (where x and y endstop is) the bed is at the highest, the nozzle is touching the bed. and if i look at the height map, that should happen in the opposite diagonal part of the bed.
the marking is where the nozzle is touching the bed while printing a large .2 sheet. i see it already at the skirt. ...
fixing a lake
I am trying to fix this a little bit, I have seen Mark's video and I think I understand the issue.
It was much worse after not having used the printer for a while, it was over 0.35 with rear back corner far up. Right now its 0.144mm variance. I fixed the high corners by bringing that corner up bit by bit. Ive also loosened and re-fastened the X and Y rails and I tested with all the screws but 1 just finger tight (to allow thermal expansion). Ive let the printer heat up for at least an hour (inside was 40C) and loosened/fastened the rails once more.
Im not sure what to think of this as it keeps showing this lake, suggesting both X and Y are bending down in the middle? I guess its possible the extrusions/rails are bend?

500mm Bed Mesh & Z-Offset
I’ve ran a few meshes prior to a one hour heat soak and when I’d home and 0 the toolhead the paper test would give me the correct amount of friction.
I just ran my last bed mesh calibrate around an hour of the bed sitting at 100c, however now when I 0 out the toolhead there’s 0 friction.
Is it okay to run like this or should I do the paper test now and manually change my Z-Offset? The upcoming print will be about 30 hours. ...
Watched the video and giving my best but it seems it heavy warped
Im hammering like crazy but nothing is changing
.7 on a 500, mostly in one corner
Been working on this for a while, always seem to have difficulty with this one corner. Yes I've watched the video. I know my printer isn't totally square but doing my best without having to take the whole thing apart 🙂
Bed Mesh Just Keeps Getting Worse
After remounting and straightening everything I can think of, it seems like I'm only making things worse. I started out with a 0.4-ish range, and now I'm looking at over 0.9. What am I doing wrong?
Here's what I currently have, unheated and heated (60°C), respectively....
First scan what to do
Hi i just started with tweaking and configuration of my V-core 300. First scan made on cold bed how can i adjust?
following frame square guide but things seems to be getting worse.
Ive been following the frame squaring guide but things have been getting worse the more i follow it. I havent touched the motor mount sides, only addressing A and B. The rear seems really badly out of square and im tempted just to completely rebuild. Although i did build with a DIN875 the first time and im not sure how i could get the frame any squarer. Corner to corner was within 0.5 of a mm. Should i check for bent extrusions?
Bed dip in the middle along Y axis
Hi,
Can anyone give me a hint of how to sort it ?
Variance 0.45
Thanks!...
inconsistent and unreliable bed mesh need help please
Well I have tried the super pinda, beacon probe, and now a Euclid probe and cannot get this machine to be consistent with the first layer. I have four other machines, three of which are reprap using Euclid, voron tap, and BL touch. They are all consistent no matter the bed plate or material. For any of my experts out there please help as this is extremely frustrating. Please also let me know what you need to see from me to help.
