I saw a friend using a tool for his Elegoo printer to level the print bed. I decided to make something similar to it for my K1Max. This is a simple tool that helps in leveling the K1 series print bed. It hangs from the upper X carriage rod. You hold it firmly down and raise the bed until it touches it. 

The way I use it:

1- home the probe (G28)

2- Lower the bed by about 15cm (150mm)

3- I place the tool on the X rod so that it hovers near the left front screw.

4- I bring the bed slowly up until it touches the bottom of the tool

5- Then I move to other screw locations and adjust the screws up or down to get the bed to touch the bottom of the tool.

6- Repeat a couple of times to get it right

If you modified the bed to use Bed Leveling knobs, such as:

It can help you to get it in the right ballpark as well. That's what I use it for.

Then, if you have rooted your printer, you can run Screw_Tilt_Adjust and in a couple of steps get it to be perfectly parallel to the gantry.

I've attached both STL and STEP files.
