I usually use metal scraper, hair spray or Kapton tape, depending on the type of adhesion used.

you'd think so - but no.
Hell some of the parts I've had recently I've picked the machine up by them and shook it - still stays on calibration.
Now I always heat the bed back up to 60 for larger parts and can get the scraper underneath.
I'm always amazed how stable the thing is :-)
Genuinely can't remember the last time I calibrated it.
that said there's probably a layer of glue stick half a mm thick :-)
I think that takes care of any minor shifts in calibration.
And doesn't seem to effect the print in any way.
But considering the batterig the build plate has had recently it's pretty amazing that i can still just hit print and watch it go for another perfect print.
Also impressive how well the four little bits of kapton tape at the corners hold the bed. It's rock steady.
I'm going to try some abs at 60c later - see if that also sticks to the glue stick base.
I'm not keen on the stuff - but I do still a lot of it on the shelf, that needs using up.Last edited by curious aardvark; 08-18-2015 at 05:39 AM.

in the lab we use blue type to protect a bed and for easier taking out . just remove printing with the type from the bed. much easier in my opinion
