Post Bolt down heated bed
New at this and assembling my first Mendel.

How far/tight should I bolt the heated bed onto the springs? At the moment I have it so that it is basically resting on the springs but it wobbles around a fair bit

Thanks

tighter... :D

It will always move a bit.. but what you don't want is for it to take two different positons... (it should always spring back to the same postition..

About half-way down or a bit more is fine...

Al....
