Advice on Sqauring Up - Strange mesh
Hi all!
I have a strange looking mesh, with the back right having a spike and the back left having a dip - any advise where I should start regarding Squaring? Bed is clean and has no anomalies on it.
Thanks in advance! 😄

You should raise A until the back 2 points are flat

Thank you for the reply, how would you advise rasing A? In the video is explains to bring B down you loosen the bolts and give it a wack from the top right bar (looking at the numbnail) I would assume loosening the same bolts on the A extrusion and smacking it from the bottom?
Enclosed or normal?
normal 🙂
You would do the same as B
Unscrew the same bolts
Then lift it gently but mark where your starting position is with a marker
And then bolt a few bolts down and do testing again
Repeat until the bed on the back is flat
Then screw everything down
thank you @VisualTech48 - when you say do the same as B, undo the same bolts shown in the video but on the A? and when you say lift, how would i 'lift' it? and where should i mark it? sorry for all the questions but i want to make sure i understand and learn as well as fix the issue. Appreciate you taking the time to help
Yeah so the same bolts but on the A of course.
You mark it here
And then lift a bit, and then hold and screw a few bolts down
Pretty much the idea, scew a few bolts, go for another test and re run
If its good tighten it all up nice.
amazing thank you! will give this ago and report back
for lifting, just grab the extrusion and lift it up by hand?
Yes, but bit by bit.
But be patient.
Lift it a bit, torque a few screw, check.
You want C and D to be flat.
And try using more points, 7x7
