I wish I had bought this sooner!

I swore I print on a magnetic platform and heard about all the problems with printing on glass so there was no reason for me to switch. Boy am I glad I did! Installation takes a few simple steps, but once the alignment is set everything works great. My very first print was great. It even jumped off the glass with ease. Adhesion wasn't a problem. One note - glass has a textured side and a smooth side. After research I decided to print on the smooth side and it suits me. You can try it and decide for yourself. Keep in mind that any glass bed will require you to adjust the Z axis limit switch up a few millimeters (glass thickness. I loosened the switch, lifted and placed the edge of the glass underneath - then tightened back up). This is exactly the thickness of your new glass bed. > level-level-level. If you're not using BL Touch, the paper method (which I use) works great, but do this a few times to make sure it's being typed correctly. The paper should pass under the nozzle with little friction/resistance. This step is crucial! > Set the initial layer height to 0.3 in the slicer software > Finally, before each print, wipe the glass with isopropyl alcohol (rubbing) with a microfiber cloth. I print PLA at 62ยฐ and it works great so far. GREAT SELLER - The glass comes with clips to hold it in place and everything is securely wrapped in foam for excellent protection. I highly recommend this item!

Pros
  • High Hardness and Durability: It is a combination of chemically strengthened glass and surface compound coating. The flatness of the glass will be much better, and the composite coating of the "grid" surface will be even, giving the platform excellent flatness.
Cons
  • Slightly torn
