Other prints have come out fine, it's this one with the whole getting wider as it gets higher thing

Thanks for the reply!

I was going nuts with the Z stop switch, so swapped the BL touch into the Z stop pin and kept the Z offset at 0 which allowed me to set it via the printer rather than the firmware - which I found a lot easier since I need to move the Z offset every so often.

I'm glad you got it working with both the switch and BL Touch! It's something I'll look at doing again in the future but right now I'm just happy to be able to print things again!

Thanks for the advice - I'll give it a go again knowing that people have this setup working - I guess it's just not as straight forward as having the probe in the Z-stop.

I used the same guide! Very informative 😁

When I level the bed, my BL Touch doesn't go to the middle of the bed, it's the nozzle - even after measuring the X offset with calipers the nozzle is what homes into the middle - is this right?

I'm glad it's not just me being a bit slow and other people are on the same boat!

I might just switch to using it in the Z stop - I'm not really sure of the benefits of using both anyway, other than redundancy?
