Hello all, There have been a number of designs and ideas for easily changing between the different tool heads. But not really for the bed itself. Personally I don’t have that much of a problem with switching the tool heads (just 4 screws) but I don’t like to change the bed which is a lot more work…

Incredible job buddy…hahaha the only problem is that I am not an expert and technically I am trying to understand what you sent… its time for me to learn from youtube and figure out how to do this for the A250. I am more interested on the change from 3D to laser… then try to do something for CNC, tr…

If you’re only switching between 3dp and laser, you can cheat by just taping/glueing the laser beds to the first 3dp bed you manage to ruin, then your laser bed can magnetically mount to the heated bed.

[PXL_20210921_131503593] That’s exactly what I did. I used the old woodworking trick of painters tape-superglue-painters tape to put it on. It’s rock solid and does great.

woah, i feel so stupid not thinking of that what 3m tape would you recommend?

Missed this entire thread somehow, but this just cracked me up: [image] nivekmai: you can cheat by just taping/glueing the laser beds to the first 3dp bed you manage to ruin, How did you know?!? :wink: @scyto : I’d probably just use contact cement. if it doesn’t hold, time to break out the c…

[image] edf: I’d probably just use contact cement. if it doesn’t hold, time to break out the construction adhesive. scyto goes to google what that means :slight_smile: (never used any of that)

I just used some random double sided tape I had lying around. If you’re doing it right, the laser bed should be experiencing 0 stress, so the only thing that really matters is how flat it stays (read: thinner is better). As long as it sticks, it’s probably good enough. That being said, I’ll be reco…

I often see double-sided tape presented as a solution (in 3d printing, woodwork, metalwork, you name it), but I have never had good results with it. Gimme a good ol’ fashioned toxic adhesive any day :slight_smile:

Fully agree. Continuously have perfect results when using magigoo. Without it very mixed and offer bad outcomes. Wil not do any print anymore without it!

we’re talking about taping the laser bed down to a print sheet, I don’t think magigoo does the same thing
