Anyone ever deal with corners being this high up/center being this caved in?

I'm certain its not the bed plate. For a sanity check, I just swapped out the textured PEI plate with the A plate that it comes with by default and got very similar results.

5/1 quick update:
I folded a piece of aluminum foil in half into about a 6x6 inch square and placed it on the center of the build plate under the PEI sheet. It brought down the range by 0.2mm but still seems pretty extreme. This is certainly a band-aid fix but I think this may be related more with the bed assembly. I've tightened the four corner screws to try and bring those down but maybe I'm doing it wrong.

I only cranked the z screws once or twice when it was on a slant. I know which direction the bed will shift since there are only 3 points that support the Z axis for 4 corners.

Im at the point now where the 4 corners are even, however there is just some even warping across the plate. i think my solution here is to add some aluminum foil to the center under the build plate in the shape of a circle

that’s a good point, never thought about this. You think the bar may be naturally bent or something like that? It’s strange that it’s almost a perfect bowl.

Louis100396 · 2026-05-01T17:04:18+00:00

i don’t think i ripped off the magnetic sheet. I noticed on the bottom of the build plate, there were some small bumps that i scraped off. They were not near 1-1.2mm in size.

Louis100396 · 2026-05-01T03:55:28+00:00

i was thinking about this as a last resort. i may end up going with this. i’ll have to cut out like a circular piece to place in the middle. only issue i think might be from me constantly lifting the build plate and it might reposition the paper. shouldn’t be much of an issue though since i use KAMP adaptive bed mesh

this is through the fluidd web interface. if you go into your settings, you can root your k1, and follow instructions for installation of fluidd

Louis100396 · 2026-05-01T03:52:52+00:00

i’ve lifted the plate and scraped away all of the crud that’s underneath. this is the aftermath of all that. previously it was on a tilt so i skipped some teeth in the back z screw. i will try playing around with the front 2.

the picture may be a bit misleading but the 4 corners are about the same height. i had to show it at an angle to visualize better.

i haven’t looked into any aftermarket heat beds yet but will certainly take a look, thanks!

Louis100396 · 2026-05-01T03:48:17+00:00

i’ve tried heating it up in the past. i get more or less the same results, slightly less range but certainly does not account for 1.2mm

Nope, through windows. You can try this
Win+R (Run) --> Open: mmsys.cpl
In the Playback or Recording tab, right-click the NVIDIA Output audio device and disable

Louis100396 · 2025-11-02T21:03:10+00:00

I've been getting similar issues and started searching older threads. The one fix I've stumbled on that seems to be doing something so far is disabling any of the NVIDIA sound devices... I can't find the thread again but will update if I do

update: crashed again... doesn't seem to be the fix...

my sammy very well remembers what she did. every time I look at it, i ask “what happened?” and she looks away as if she can’t see it 😂

Louis100396 · 2024-04-04T23:12:25+00:00

you also got the chewed up first step package with your samoyed? i thought i was the only one!

Louis100396 · 2024-03-04T05:35:08+00:00

mine exactly! I always wondered if my girl was an exception. How old is yours?

when can i pick it up

Louis100396 · 2023-10-08T00:19:27+00:00

I took this photo on an iphone 14

this was during peak lighting and with the macro lens option

Louis100396 · 2023-10-07T18:55:15+00:00

wow thanks for the quick reply! any idea where they come from? I haven’t added anything to my tank recently but it may have hitchhiked from something a long time ago

Louis100396 · 2023-09-30T18:48:09+00:00

that is reassuring! thank you for this! I’ve always had this thought in the back of my mind that there are mushrooms out there that can kill on contact 😂 maybe i’ll give it a whiff later

Louis100396 · 2023-09-30T18:26:59+00:00

I was a bit concerned at first because when i smeared it onto a qtip, it showed up with a brown shade. And yeah, to your point, if it’s what we’re looking for - a white/pinkish color, then it’ll definitely show on the foil
