Calibration Troubles

So I've been playing with the calibration for a few days now and I still can't get it right. I just keep getting the XYZ calibration failed message. According to the manual it's because my axes are too skewed. This information isn't particularly helpful.

The biggest thing I've noticed odd about my printer is that the build plate seems crooked. It's actually lower on the right than the left, but as far as I can tell it is not because the frame is too high on one side, it just seems the plate itself is leaning to one side.

Anyone have any advice on the matter, I've been trying to research the solutions, but I haven't found anything helpful. Links to good calibration manuals/tutorials are also helpful.

Re: Calibration Troubles

Make sure the Y smooth rods are properly hom in the corner pieces.

Make sure that the 10mm threaded rods are fully home in the Z frame slots.

I've managed to get it calibrated finally, now I'm just having problems with Slic3r XD

That is for another topic though.
