I can get wildly different bed meshes without ever moving or adjusting anything on the machine, leading me to believe that the BL-Touch probe might have some issues (or may not be a genuine part, I'm not certain.) It might be worth looking into something else for Z probing. +### + +Bed meshing was working, it's just that I'm unused to sprung beds.
