Bed Leveling for Resin Printers with a Wham Bam Flexi Plate

Now that you have the Z spacer step out of the way and you installed your magnet, we can move to the leveling process.
There are a couple different methods to level a bed for resin printers, such as the paper stack method, the corner paper method, or, if you have a newer printer, the auto-leveling feature.ย 
On this page, we will include a video from Wham Bam and provide step-by-step directions for Leveling.

Leveling Process Step by Step

Leveling process for Resin Printers without auto Level
Note: after the spacer and Magnet are installedย ย ย 
1.ย  Remove your vat.
2.ย  Make sure the Wham Bam Flexi Plate and Magnet are mounted to the Build Plate.
3.ย  Loosen all of the screws around the build plate for leveling.
4.ย  Make sure the build plate moves freely.
5.ย  Put down 2-4 sheets of paper on the screen. If your machine has screws that move freely in their slots you need only 2 sheets, if your machine has a spring that pushes down on the build plate use 3-4.
6.ย  Hit the home button on your machine control panel.
7.ย  When the build plate lowers to the bottommost position, tighten all of the leveling screws, one at a time.ย  Be careful not to tilt the build plate while tightening the screws, the direction of the Allen key can influence the tilt.ย ย 
8.ย  If you had ever used the set z=0 at a different height, then reset it now by hitting z=0 while it is leveled by screws only.
9.ย  Hit home again, as the build plate lifts up remove all the sheets of paper except 1.ย ย 
You should be verifying the level on one sheet.
10.ย  Test pulling and pushing the paper under all areas of the build plate.ย  Verify that it has even resistance in each corner and center, yet the paper can move in each area.
11. ย  If your printer is making noise when homing, then the level was not done properly, please relevel
NOTE: please do not use the UI functions to adjust the home pos
ition, just use leveling screws. do not use 'set z=0โ€™ See Leveling instructions
