Rostock MAX v2 Assembly Guide
Before you set the glass on the Onyx heated bed, I want you to
carefully
remove the Kapton
tape you used to cover the center hole in the bed.
The reason you're removing the tape is to ensure that it doesn't lift the Borosilicate glass plate in
the center. I know that it doesn't feel very thick, but even a little can make a difference.
Take the glass plate out of the protective shield and using a permanent marker, make a 1/4”
wide mark on the edge of the glass.
The mark will give you a guide when replacing the Borosilicate glass build plate if you remove
it for any reason. Even though the glass thickness is very consistent, tiny variations in the surface of
the glass can introduce calibration issues if the glass isn't replaced in the exact spot it was when you
first calibrated your printer. You may even want to make the mark a “T” to help ensure that you get it
right side up when re-installing it.
I discovered this issue while working on Orange Menace (my original Rostock MAX v1)
recently and thought it was important enough to let new builders know about the potential issue it could
cause.
