    If i remember right the flex-wedge was contributed by someone who owns a printer with a slightly thinner top panel.

    That's probably the reason...

    I would just mount the standard wedges, it works like a charm on my printer (for years now).

    thanks for explaining, I managed to get the 3mm screw in BUT the amount of tension that is on the dock is concerning!! I will re print the std wedges in flex, and throw the STL Flex wedge in the Bin.
