Fully automated bed leveling

thingiverse

I was fed up with wasting too much time leveling my bed every time I made any adjustments, so I began searching for a way to automate the process. After coming across several ideas that didn't quite meet my expectations, I decided to start from scratch and design my own solution. The light bulb moment struck when I remembered the concept of a foot-activated door lock – you know, where pushing a pin locks it and pulling a lever unlocks it. This simple yet effective mechanism was exactly what I had been looking for... All I needed to do was scale up the design to the right proportions and add an optional 9g servo to automate the lever unlocking process and make some minor adjustments to the Marlin firmware, and voilà – no more complicated mechanisms, switches, or sensors. It's a Public Domain project, so if anyone can help improve it, I would be incredibly grateful.
