I got often problems with a bent X-Axis while transporting my ender 3 on the backseat of my car. Often I had to realign it afer the transport.
So I developed this transportation-lock and alignment tool.
To align your x-axis of the printer, lift the X-Axis a litle bit and move the Printhead to the middle of the printer.
Now place two of the alignmenttools into the slots of the extrusionprofiles just like on the photos.
Now turn the Z- spindle down until one (or in the best case all two) alignmenttool touch the extrusionprofile of the X-Axis.
When onlx one of both alignmenttools touch the X- axis, loose the two screws from the right rail and bend the X-Axis carefully into the right direction.
Check by turning the Z-spindle if both of the alignmenttools touch the X-Axis at the same time. If so, tighten the two screws again and check again.
Now the X-axis rail schuld be parallel to the base of the printer and you can level your printbed.
I hope my creation can help you and I wish you a lot of fun with it.
