thingiverse

# Custom Spacer for Monoprice Mini Delta 3D Printer This spacer ensures a **120mm x 3mm** glass build surface stays securely in place on the factory bed without adhesives or special tricks. The spacer keeps the glass steady during prints, preventing shifting that can ruin your work. ### Frequently Asked Questions #### What 3D Printers Will This Spacer Work With? This custom spacer is designed specifically for the Monoprice Mini Delta printer and its unique tolerances. If you have a different version with varying tolerances, let me know so I can update the model to ensure a perfect fit. #### Which Beds Does This Spacer Fit? This spacer is intended for use only with the factory bed that comes with the MP Mini Delta 3D Printer. #### What Glass Build Surfaces Can Be Used With This Spacer? Any glass plate with a diameter of **120mm** and thickness of **3mm** will work perfectly. You can find these plates on Amazon or your preferred store by searching for "120mm Borosilicate Glass Plate." They usually cost around $10 USD. #### Won't the Print Head Hit the Top of the Spacer? The spacer is designed to clear the print head during calibration, so you don't have to worry about interference. #### Does the Lip on the Model Reduce Printable Area? The lip on the spacer takes up only **2mm**, leaving ample space for printing. It won't affect your printable area. #### Will the Spacer Affect Self-Calibration? The fit should be snug, but vertical movement remains unaffected. You can rely on self-calibration without any issues. #### Why Doesn't This Spacer Hold Onto the Underside of the Bed? I designed this spacer to make lifting and replacing the glass surface quick and easy. By not holding onto the underside of the bed, you can simply lift the glass out and put it back in place without fussing with spacers.
