The arms are left from a previouse trial and honestly I was too excited of the new solution and forgot to disassamble them.
Unfortunately the setup I used them was not stiff enough so the plate itself was wobbling.

If used with a heated bed, the bed washers have to be replaced by metal ones.
If a cable chain is needed, you can use this one :-)

I changed my bed leveling also to three point, but I have one screw in the front and two on the sides.
I also installed a heated bed, but no Alu plate yet.
What are dimensions of the Alu plate? 220 x 220? Or a little bigger? What type of Alu is it the famous Mic-6? Mic-6 is hard to get in Europe, but after longer research and talking to specialized metal traders I found sth. which has the same quality and spec like Mic-6.
It´s called 5080 or 5083, you can buy it online here:
What type of silicone heating pad will you use? Do you have a source in Europe for it? All sources I found are in China or the US.
By the way, I like the printed cable chain you made for the heated bed. I think I will print one too.
I only used a Alu plate which we had in the company - honestly no idea, but it is nicely flat :smile:
The dimensions I used is the same as original (242x242) - there is a pdf at my thingiverse description also with all dimensions.
MIC6 plates you can get here, but as this is a TM, it is sold via ACP6000.

The silicone heating pad is shot on ebay - at a UK seller.

Unfortunately I had no time up to now to mount it - and there is still the relais and the PSU missing :smile:
Regarding cable chain, thank you - I placed it in the UM, you can find a picture I made yesterday in my other post.

You have those wide arms on the wood arms at the front, but you attached your two front bed points to the springboard. Why not to the arms?
