For a Kossel 2020 Delta and other similar Delta 3D printers:
Adds a glass bed for more convenient printing
Adds 6 point manual bed leveling.
Eliminates the need for auto bed leveling inductor which reduces print head weight.
Allows one-time bed leveling, although minor adjustments can be made even during printing.
Includes hot end mount without inductor holder and captive hex nuts for easier mounting
Allows print head calibration without flashing the firmware
includes carriage with adjusting screw for easier calibration
Requires making a new bed mounting board from MDF or other suitable material. The aluminum heated bed gets drilled and tapped so that mounting screws can be attached to the bottom of the bed. This eliminates the screw heads from the top of the bed, allowing a borosilicate glass plate to be used on top of the aluminum plate. Springs are used in conjunction with printed thumbwheels to provide 6 leveling points for the bed for making fine adjustments even during printing.
