Mesh waves

Enclosed V-Core 500. Just finished doing some corner adjustments and then loosening and retightening x-gantry bolts, which brought the variance down from ~1.0 to ~0.3. However, now a strange wave pattern is showing up on the X axis, and I'm wondering what could be causing it.

Just as a test....reduce the overall size of the mesh grid. Configure the extremes so the total mesh test only covers 1/4 of the entire bed. Repeat for all four quadrants. If they are all much flatter, odds are it something with your gantry. If they repeat, it's freeplay in your carriage to rail and or belt related.

hmm, how would I fix any of those things if they turned out to be the issue? because as is it's really not a huge problem

it all depends on the results. Just changing the grid size in printer.cfg is the simplest test to narrow down the issue(s) you might have)
