Update on bare bed

The clean plate glass bed (no Kapton tape) works well for small parts, but as soon as the part gets larger, it seems to come off the bed rather easily.  So, for the time being, it will be Kapton tape always.

I have three plate glass sheets 200x200, I will keep at least one bed taped up and ready to go for if the working one should tear or bubble. 

I now wish I had purchased the 200mm wide tape I saw on e-bay!  Lining up the 50mm wide strips of tape is a lot of work.  Not too difficult, but work.  But then again, 200mm tape might be more difficult to keep bubble free.
