Flashforge Guider II - Installing a Removable Flexible Build Plate & Setting Z-axis Height

In this video I show how to install a removeable flexible build plate on my 3d printer.

A removeable plate makes it easier to get the parts off the build surface because you can flex it and also put it on a table to get access to all sides of the print surface to assist in removing parts.

Once you change the print bed, you need to re-calibrate the zero point for Z-axis. This video shows you how to do that.

NOTE: I don't really like this test because it only puts 1 layer on the print bed which if everything doesn't print perfectly, is very hard to get off!

These are the spatulas I used to help remove the pieces from the print bed:
