Duh Moment
I hope you all feel my pain. I was printing last night and just could not get my printer dialed in. Too low and then too low.
I finally went to bed disgruntled. I realized this morning what the problem was......DUH! Scrap of print on the magmatic print bed under the sheet. Boy did I feel stupid. I hope this adds to you things to check and spares you of a wasted evening.

Yes, I have that T shirt too!
Just wait til we have bed randomization in firmware so it won't be obvious that the problem is localized.

Probably true. It really hurts when you realize how stupid a mistake is after it has cause hours wasted to try get something to work.

RE: Duh Moment
The bed mesh leveling gives you a clue when that has happened. A scrap of interface could blow onto the bed when you've got the sheet off - but bed mesh leveling does one of those whoop-de-doos when that has happened (unexpected bump detected on print surface)

It did not do that this time, but I have seen it.
