This model is used to help facilitate the leveling process of the Creality K1 bed, when it is out of level. Please note, that you should only use this if you really know what you are doing. Using this part can potentially cause damage to your printer if you do not use it correctly. Please use at your own risk.
Attached are some photos I took of the fixture. You will see that there are two of them. One goes in the back of the bed and the other in the front. They slide under the two Y Axis rods on each side and span vertically from there down to the bed surface. The height of these fixtures are long enough to make sure the hot end does not touch the bed surface during manual leveling.
When doing the manual leveling procedure, I flipped the printer upside down, which makes everything much easier. If you do this, make sure you do not force the bed down as that can apply unwanted stress on the Y axis linear rods through the use of this fixture. Ideally, you want the bed to just barely touch the fixture, with only the weight of the bed and no additional force from the Z axis threaded rods.
These fixtures are quite long (330mm), so you would need a large format printer to print them. However, I have also included the CAD file (step) so you can modify it if you like. It could easily be modified so that it can be printed on any smaller printer and then screwed or snapped together later.
