Topic: Crooked build platform

Hello fellow doodlers,

today I wanted to print my first semi big object.
The Gap on the right side of the platform issn't even visible (good),
The Gap on the left   side is ... verry visible (pretty bad)...

Is there any possebility to adjust this, WITHOUT removing the Tape from the build platform?
This is some serious porblem, I know, the head could crash into the platform if it's done wrong...

Has anyone done this before?

Thanks for your advice in advance...

Re: Crooked build platform

no .. you need to "poke" thru the kapton tape to put a hex wrench in the screw (don't remove the tape)

Yes there is. Using a pair of pliers you can turn the rod from underneath. Or you can print and have a look:

No need to rip any tape smile

I printed only about 1/4 of the thumbscrews (no need to have em so big) threaded on with a drop of CA and done deal.
