Maintenance & Repair
Upgrades
- Upgrade the bed print surface! You can order a 235mm x 235mm coated glass bed (e.g. ultrabase, superplate) which stick well, but make it much easier to remove prints after they are done! This printer bed has the same dimensions as Ender 3. Order from: Gearbest or from AliExpress. For tips with using coated glass beds, have a look here: Coated Glass Bed Adhesion Tips
