Topic: supporting the bed

Has anyone made a support for the bed to keep it from moving ever slightly in the xy plane? I have been searching for something like that but have not found anything. The small amount that the bed shakes is making a small contribution to the texture on the edges of the part. I print mostly parts that get assembled and sanding edges for them to fit correctly is not always possible with some of the more complicated assemblies.

You have to shim or glue the bushings in place on the right side and make shims to keep the under sized glass from shifting as well.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!
