This is a block/riser for a Bambu A1 Silicone Nozzle Wiper to be used on a Qidi X-Max 3. It is a little crude but has worked well for me for 100's of hours of wiping.

 

The silicone pad should be centered left to right on the block and against the edge that has the lip as shown below

 

It should be super glued to the first recessed spot on the build plate as far right and back as it can go as seen below and in the cover photo

 

Below is a macro I created that works for my specific use case, if you followed the above directions it should get you in the right area but you might need to tweak the x,y,z coordinates. I am using a beacon with contact which is why I preheat the nozzle to 160 but that can be changed to whatever you'd like.
