Evening all. Have had my printer for a while now. I've noticed that it appears that the glass or bed is just a hair not level. It is slight enough and just notice as the printer goes from the right to left it will begin the first layer fine and as it rides along the X axis (i believe) it appears to get close enough that hardly any fillament comes out leaving a super thin layer and when it rides back the other way it comes back to a normal layer. Only happens on the initial layer. Print jobs appear to finish ok, but i know there is something that is not aligned.
What are the correct screws/nobs (not sure what to call them) to make the bed adjustments. I notice 3 point contacts with springs. Do i loosen or tighten those to fine tune?
thank you!
I have a Maker Gear M2

Steve has got a great writeup on that here:

Update: Be sure to read down into the responses to see his second diagram - it's the one I use to adjust the level on mine.
