Topic: Bed level adjuster mod

Been finding the stock thumb screws on my Da Vinci printer a bit awkward to turn and difficult to gauge how much you've turned them so I knocked up these .... www.thingiverse.com/thing:526058.
They may also work on other printers with 3mm levelling screws.
They're much easier to turn and provide a visual aid to help judge the amount of adjustment.

Re: Bed level adjuster mod

Just got round to replacing the 2 rear thumb screws and realised the adjuster is too short, doh !
Apologies, I'm working on this just now and will upload a 2nd STL for the rear adjusters shortly.

Re: Bed level adjuster mod

Ok, I've uploaded a 2nd version of the adjuster to Thingiverse which fits the 2 at the back.
So use 1 of the short ones at the front and 2 of the longer ones at the back.
Once again, apologies to anyone who has already printed 3 of the original, shorter ones.
