You can buy a 254x254x2mm floatglas panel from your local glassy or order it online. Slap a 1.75mm magnetic high temp sticker to it and you have the same.

Glad youâve finally come around and we can agree that a bed changes shape when heated. Pretty compelling evidence that measurements of a cold, uninstalled bed donât mean much.
Itâs not magic, itâs science.

Did you happen to do the version which doesnât need to go on the top?
Also does the printer use the ABL values when manually being moved around the bed using the control panel? (not during a print)
Would it be possible to get a 3mm glass sheet and replace the aluminum plate inside the plastic frame ?
Is the heater underneath a âsticker on the aluminum sheetâ ? Is it possible to separate the heating element from the aluminum plate ?
Not yet, but dont worry I will make an update end of week
Yes it does, this is the cool news, ABL is always active even when not printing
Whatâs the fiber plate for?
I am assuming that you are making your own magnetic glass bed correct? So why the fiber plate?

Are you sure that ABL is active during manual move via display controlls?
Just to let you know, i made a post in feature requests for Bambu Studio, so we could have a mesh visualizer. Go post there if you want to promote the idea:
@Thrawn yes, I am sure at least that after a print it stay active, I have played a while with it
Having those data transferred by the existing printer MQTT server would be great too, it would enable to add graph like the one you posted in home automation softwares like âhome assistanceâ for example.
Agree, but I think that would be a second step but for now, just having it in Bambu Studio would be more that enough so everyone can evaluate the state of their beds in a simple way.
I consider that functionality really basic for a 3dprinter, and I was surprised there was not an option for that when I got my x1c 1 week ago. We must make some noise so it is added ASAP, there is no way a printer in this price point doesnât have such a basic thing.

Well, IMO, first they have to improve auto bed levelling to include borders.
I think they tried to make the Studio as simple as possible, this is why a lot of Prusa/Super slicer original functionalities are not visible in Bambu Studio, and why there is fork (Orca) tha re-enable those hidden features :). They tried to make a printer usable by everybody, this is why it may be frustrating for advanced user, average people dont want to care about their bed, they just want to print.
Anyway before displaying anything, the data should be received from the printer in one way or another, MQTT is a good candidate as they already send a lot of data this way.
Darn, so much for my idea to simply mount a gauge to the toolhead and use it to measure the bed in a half automatic manner.
I like the idea, but I do not want to know how this thread explodes if people notice that even their flat beds arenât flat and a mesh graph putting it right in their face.
Maybe you can print a simple gcode file with one instruction to disable bed levelling M420 S0 or add it to end gcode in the studio
Of course, Mama Bambu knows best on what to disclose and what to hide from the unwashed masses.

If you manage to make proper measuments with your gauge, I would be interrested in comparing to what the ABL widget give. The ABL is IMO very precise and the sensor error should be very small, according to what we get as first layer quality.
Also I am working in a second version of the ABL widget with a larger base and more graduation, so it should be possible to read up to 50Îźm. The current version smallest graduations are 250Îźm.
EDIT: I have the feeling that the ABL get completly wrong, or at least lot more wrong on borders

I also made request for mesh fade. This would address the warp issue & is available in prusa slicer, but not BS afaik. Not sure why.
Mesh fade ? there is already an extrapolation (and interpolation), I think this is what you are talking about ? problem is that there is no probing on the borders, so it rely on extrapolation wich is not very precise
