        @3DPrintingWorld In your bed.g do you have it do multiple probes per point ? If so how do you accomplish that ?

        I created a macro that heats the bed, calls out the mesh, homes, does the mesh, saves the mesh, then turns the bed off. I started at 10:10, then S= was my max travel minus 10. Plus you have to add/subtract your probe to nozzle offset.

        G29 S3
        M140 S0

          Great.

          Did you print out those "tools" designed to help align the frame pieces?

          I didn't have such tools and after seeing my 4 point height map I realized that my left and right Y axis guides were not in the same plane meaning the frame pieces were not in the same plane.

          I closely examined the left and right frame pieces where they joined the four vertical pieces at the top and found that they were at slightly different heights, with the left piece being low in the rear and right piece being high in the front.

          We are talking fractions of a mm but it was enough to generate a "twisted" height map - though not as bad as yours.

          Perhaps you are having the same problem.

            Looks like one of your bearings is not attached?

              @fcwilt Perhaps. I did print the tool but things move so I will recheck them.
              Is there a way to add the a and s parameter to your bed.g when doing the leveling so it does multiple probes ?

                Why the G29 S3? The G29 S0 creates the height map and loads it.

                  @3DPrintingWorld I pulled screws out of all of them and started a retighten. Trying to see if something came loose.

                    Yes but is there some reason you cannot modify the existing M558?

                      Ok, that makes sense.

                        I can but does that affect the bed leveling as well ?

                          If affects the way the probe works where ever it is used.

                          Do you wish to have it behave in different ways in different places?

                            @fcwilt Not necessarily. I just want it to do multiple probes when it checks bed leveling when I home the printer.

                                Well the intent of the A and S parameters is to increase the accuracy and repeatability of the probe.

                                So I have always set them and let them take affect whenever the probe is used.

                                  @fcwilt makes perfect sense. I will set that. Thank You

                                      Well I've completely lost track of who was having problems with what.

                                      @3DPrintingWorld was the OP.

                                      Then @martin7404 joined the discussion.

                                      Have we solved anything for anyone yet? 😉

                                      @martin7404 your 4 point height map suggests your bed is quite level.

                                        Martin is just bragging! 🤣

                                        I think my issue might be the magnetic sheet cracking causing a ridge making it not flat in the back left corner. I'm going to take off the magnet tonight and give it a go with just glass on on aluminum. I just cant be down too long because I'm behind on parts.... I need to build more printers.😁

                                        My bed has ever been as flat as I would have liked it. I may take a skim cut off the top. Has anyone had good luck attaching a silicon heater back on after its been removed?

                                          I am not bragging, just chime in to share that with faulty board/drivers I got wrong compensation in triple Z setup, the rest is too much I agree.
                                          My bed is within a few thousands without the magnetic mat and the mat is off with 0.1 mm
