			<description><![CDATA[<p>I just replaced my existing pitted print bed with 5mm borasilicate glass:</p><p>- The heat pad came off OK using acetone, just need to work around it carefully pulling it up as you go.<br />- I assembled it back into the bed frame with the heat pad underneath it (no glue), the screws and everything worked fine.<br />- There was enough adjustment in the bed levelling to get it down another 2mm without a problem, this seems to work better as the bed adjustments were continually moving due to a lack of tension on them previously.<br />- I had been having some issues with apparent hot spots in the prints, the heating seems to be more even now.<br />- Glass supplier said that 5mm is usually easier and cheaper to get as it is used for more things.</p><p>Only thing I would have done differently is to get the top edge chamfered, it now sticks up above the plastic frame.</p>]]></description>
