NOTE 2/01/26: Tool works great on the Centauri Carbon 2. Just received my CC2 and the back right corner was lower than all the other 4 corners.
When I received my Centauri Carbon, I noticed that during prints, the bed would move up and down as the print head moved across it. This is the automatic bed leveling system doing its job. However, I also noticed that the bed wasn’t very level.
After consulting the online manual, I found that it recommends tightening all four screws that hold the bed in place (this was not the case on my printer the screws were not completely tightened and not all set the same tightness). Following this instruction by tightening them all the way down, I ended up with a bed that wasn’t very level. To address this, I designed a very simple but effective leveling tool that mounts to the linear bars, allowing you to ensure your bed is properly leveled to the print head.
I level mine without the print plate attached but I expect it would work either way. So far, this method has improved my print quality and the reliability of bed adhesion.
