This is a rigid bed heated bed mount for us on my FolgerTech Kossel Rev B. The factory mounts were cut acrylic that had more play then I would like in them. I also went down the path of using springs to level the bed but didn't like the play in the bed.
I decided to revisit my printer build and decided that a with a solid and accurate build I wouldn't need the springs to level the bed as long as it was very close to level and flat to begin with. I also started using an autolevel probe made from the extra endstop I received with my printer. The solid bed and auto leveling has made a huge improvement, quality and time to get a printer ready.
The issue I had with springs under the bed was the fact that when removing a printer the bed would move around so much that I never could trust that it was always level. I would have to check before each print to make sure none of the springs had bound up.
I designed this to fit my printer which has a 220mm heated bed with 6 mounting holes a
