Hi all,

There's this too: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1166497

I've been meaning to put up a video that would convey just how easy it is to deal with, the pictures don't quite do it. Binder clip free and very happy.

It looks like it notches in on the front of the bed and just drops in on the rear?

That's pretty awesome... :shock: Originally looking at it I though you had to press the clamps in the rear to remove the build surface but watching the video shows just how impressive the design is. Putting that one on the list for sure.

Thanks for sharing. :D

I printed up a set of these this weekend and they are sweet.. it's like the ultimate quick change for swapping out surfaces.

Thanks again for sharing.. :D

Yeah, I'm going to swap out to PETG today and print a set of these and one of Tim's Z-return springs today.....been working on that guide for so long there hasn't been any printing time. (Always too much to do and never enough time to do it all.) :P

To hell with the haircut....... :lol:

I was running Jim's corners printed in PETG and after taking them off I was surprised to see they melted a little. (no wonder my bed level was off :D) I printed these in EPC in hopes they hold up better.

Uh-oh! Thanks 4 the head's up - all I've got is PETG on hand - guess I need to wait a bit further! :?
