A more precise way to dial in your CR-10's bed. Fits over existing bed knobs.
M4 threads have a 0.7mm pitch, so turning the knobs 1/7 of a turn will change the distance 0.1mm.
I beveled the face and added numbers so you could read numerical adjustment. Each big point is 0.1mm. Small points are 0.02mm. Bigger numbers mean a bigger gap.
The file named "cr10_thumbdial_ws_idig3d.stl" is with support. The support is a solid ring you can snap out when the print is completed. A screwdriver may help.
Contribute to my coffee fund if you find this useful and want to encourage my insanity. Thanks!
Print Settings

Rafts:
No
Supports:
No
Resolution:
0.2-0.25mm layers
Infill:
25-33%
Notes:
3 shells/perimeters. If you want you slicer to generate support, use the file without "ws" in the name.
Slow down the first layer since there are some smaller sections.Post-Printing
If you printed the 'ws' (With Support) version, snap out the ring.
Remove each bed knob one at a time.
Press the knob into the thumbnail.
Screw back on the bed screw.
Repeat for all four screws.
Relevel the bed.
I usually print a few lines of a skirt around my prints and turn the dials to get the bed dialed in.
