Bed Leveling Helper for Geeetech® Prusa I3 Pro B ACRYLIC version

thingiverse

Since the moment I tried this wonderful printer I realized that a lot of things could be improved. One of these is the way you do bed leveling: a bolt passing through the bed and its holder that is screwed on a winged nut. What's the problem? Well to begin with there is the fact you need to use two hands, one blocking one part and the other screwing the other, because after a while you begin to loose friction. Another problem is that there is no space to put the hands under the plate on the backside and screw the winged nut, so you end to block it with your hand (if it can fit) and with a hex key screw the bolt. So I present you my solution: a printed helper enclosing a constrained m3 nut! Just print four of them and put them on the angles of the bed holder et-voilà! Now you can fine calibrate the leveling! Just one possible down-side (I don't know if it is a downside as long you do it right): you will lose the "springiness" of the bed, caused by low friction of the original system.
