Wavy mesh
V-core 3.1 500
i am very confused by the wavy mesh i get, could someone plekase elaborate what is happening? i watched the leveling video a couple of times and already adjusted a lot regarding the classic height at C and low point at D.
I did already unscrew and retighten the lineair rail on the x axis but no succes yet.
I also read through a lot of older posts but couldnt find a solution.
Thanks in advance!

You shouldn't really touch much the corners uintil you fix your X gantry.
Your X gantry goes like this:
This is of course exaggerated butz you get the point.
Red points mean that its closer to the bed, while blue points show its further away.
Do fix this you can try to unscrew all of the rail bolts.
And then screw them one by one, from one side to the other, with a torque wrench or try to torque it the same as you go.
Secondly it could be that the extrusion itself is just a bit bent, then I suggest either by hand pushing and pulling the extrusion based on the mesh, or disassmble the X and putting the rail and the extrusion seperatly on a flat surface, and then put books or something over night so it straightens up.
My reply somehow didnt get sent..
Thank yopu very much for ther elaborate reply, what you suggest is what i was thinking off myself.
Could you also clarify the dip along the y-axis?
Don't touch the Y axis till you fix the X
Because X can cause false positives on Y
When you fix X then you cna work on the Y
And see if its the rail or the bed itself.
I will try to fix the x axis when I have time, I already loosened and tightened the linear rail but to no succes.
Thank you again!
