Glass plate use?

Anyone using a glass plate on the bed? I use them on my other printers and love them. Just wondering about this printer.

Thanks for any thoughts, opinions.

Generally speaking, one of the big advantages of the MK42 heated bed is to get away from the need for glass. Many filaments stick nicely on the PEI sheet, and for those that need something special, often times you need them to stick less!

Adding material on top of the MK42 bed could have a negative impact on the PINDA probe, and mesh bed leveling.
