			<description><![CDATA[<p>I have done something similar to me mini.</p><p>Got a piece of 4mm glass cut to the size of the bed, driller the glass and the original bed with a 5mm hole and used appoxy to secure 5mm rare earth magnets into all holes.</p><p>I had to print a 5mm shim to raise the z axis end stop to allow for the extra 5mm added to the build plate.</p><p>Stuck a sheet of buildtak on the glass and to be fair that stuff is awesome. Since doing the mod my prints have improved 10 fold and removing the parts is a lot easier now I can remove the build plate.</p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://image.ibb.co/e6q21w/2_B33_E68_C_FC6_A_447_D_BCB1_E5_D6171_BAF13.jpg" alt="https://image.ibb.co/e6q21w/2_B33_E68_C_FC6_A_447_D_BCB1_E5_D6171_BAF13.jpg" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://image.ibb.co/cGBLob/AC090074_DE19_40_ED_A688_491798658_BC9.jpg" alt="https://image.ibb.co/cGBLob/AC090074_DE19_40_ED_A688_491798658_BC9.jpg" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://image.ibb.co/crZUgw/3_A1058_BF_23_EF_4_DC9_9_AAB_54_CE577973_AE.jpg" alt="https://image.ibb.co/crZUgw/3_A1058_BF_23_EF_4_DC9_9_AAB_54_CE577973_AE.jpg" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://image.ibb.co/bBq21w/4_B37_C46_A_9_EA8_4184_B44_E_CACB78_B77506.jpg" alt="https://image.ibb.co/bBq21w/4_B37_C46_A_9_EA8_4184_B44_E_CACB78_B77506.jpg" /></span></p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>So, I bought this old DaVinci Jr Wifi a while ago and the previous owner made a mod, which i replicated. Its really simple; </p><p>You make four small corners that attach to the existing bed, with screws, and install a precisely cut piece of semi-flexible plexiglas. On top of this, you can put anything you want; I&#039;ve used BuildTak here in the picture (and with residue glue). </p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/fd/72/pgwWDEb1_o.jpg" alt="https://images2.imgbox.com/fd/72/pgwWDEb1_o.jpg" /></span></p><p>Previously, BuildTak was gripping too much on my models, and if it was on top of the glass-plate on the Davinci bed, almost impossible to get out. Also, using a spatular, I had to use so much force I thought i might break the entire printer. However, with this, I just take off the plexiglas, and bend it just enough, to the models to loosen its grip.</p><p>There is a small bend in the plexiglas on the above image, from what i do think is when the materials contract - either that or I just forgot to &quot;unbend it&quot; last time i used it (i tend to bend it flat from time to time). However it has never caused an issue with my prints.</p><p>Really really simple mod, seen here below - just four pieces. I can find the .stl&#039;s as soon as i get access to my old computer again <img src="https://www.soliforum.com/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/3b/f5/MquvxEiR_o.jpg" alt="https://images2.imgbox.com/3b/f5/MquvxEiR_o.jpg" /></span></p>]]></description>
