other ways to attach glass to bed without clips?????

[jt41time]

The clips get in the way always. Is there another method I can use to attach my glass to the hotbed? Something I can buy in the store would be great. Don't really wanna order anything....

I use tape.

0.5mm thermal pad.

Completely secures the glass to the bed, but easy to remove. No actual adhesive so can be reused indefinitely and won't leave any residue.

If there's an electronics store nearby they should have something. If not you can order from:

You can cover the entire build plate for even heat, but it can be a little difficult to remove if you do so. I personally just use 5 2" squares (one on each corner and one in the middle). Heating isn't perfectly even but it's close enough, and it makes it easy to remove.

People often refer to these as "gino pads" due to a brand that you can buy on amazon.

This user used 16 squares for more even heat, but I think that's overkill.
