About this deal

I have an Elegoo Mars 2 printer and from day one have loved it, however getting the prints off the build plate can be a PIG. I kept finding myself wishing I had some way to hold my build plate over the mercury 2 plus wash station after a wash cycle while it drips IPA. This is a version of my regular Mars 3 build plate holder that uses a magnetic mount instead of the 2020 extrusion mount.

I eventually took an angle grinder to the play to rough up the surface but it only made a marginal difference. B. Beyond the 14days but within warranty, a full refund and replacement are not available, but repair is acceptable. If one had dealt attentively with the topic, one would have realized that one must print out a spacer with the old platform BEFORE modification, which must be inserted between the flag and threaded spindle. I am printing directly to the sheet (the reason I purchased this) but as the sheet is warping up at the edges, resin is getting underneath and the final print does not have a flat bottom. So the next step will be to coat one the sheets in the dark surface finish – probably by cold bluing the steel sheet.The enclosure can be closed and the buildplate rotated slightly so that the drops falls of at a corner. There are gaps between the magnets, but I have no trouble with resin being there – the gaps seem to be small enough that the viscous resin doesn’t get deep – only about 8 mm. For ensuring that the print sticks to the flex plate platform, I also roughened it with 80 sandpaper and a random orbital sander - now the prints adhere super to the flex plate, the flex plate adheres super to the platform.

In addition to the classic print bed, you can also equip your device with special build plates and sheets, with which the filament adhesion to the printing platform is improved and warping is prevented. We are all familiar with this situation: Either our print does not adhere to the printing platform and remains stuck to the FEP, or the print adheres so firmly to the platform that it is difficult to ever get it off the platform again undamaged. Should any loss be incurred due to the input of an incorrect address or a fraudulent transaction, you will be held responsible as the sole bearer of the pecuniary loss.This is a design to extend the Elegoo Mars endstop arm to accommodate the Wham Bam flexible build plate. Used the resources of this community to spec out my Elegoo Mars 3 from the base model to "Pro" variant. I sanded both sides of the magnetic plate and then cleaned with IPA and levelled and all has been good for months. but mostly you always have to adjust this depending on the model you want to print to compensate for factors such as contact surface, height and weight. Just found your blog and I’m hooked with your attempts to squeeze every ounce of performance out of this machine.
