I remixed paxamime's Digital Gauge Dial Adaptor https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2334149 to allow a mechanical dial gauge to fit it (the gap for the gauge was widened to 6mm) and I have raised the dial clamp such that it can be fitted to the X-Axis Rails when the Z-Axis is in the home position.

I've widened it by 5 mm to help make it rigid. I suggest it is printed with 50% or greater infill because the bolt and nut holding the Dial Gauge will create a considerable causing force and my previous prints started to deform over time.



I printed it in eSUN's PETG filament but any filament should work fine.

Using the gauge:

A) Home the Printer
B) Attack the adaptor so it is measuring the front-left corner of the bed
C) Adjust that corner of the bed to the correct height (based on an 0.003 mm feeler gauge)
D) Zero the gauge to this height
E) Move the bed forwards and adjust back-left corner, until the gauge reads zero
E) Check and adjust the front and back corners until a
