How to calibrate a G10 board

Having tried and getting nowhere trying to get things stuck to the hotplate sheet, i have now resorted to purchasing a "G10" board.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325538610215 Having received it today, i was advised to remove the steel hotplate and put this in its place.

I had to supply some fixing clips to the G10 sheet to keep it on the hotbed.

I now have a dilemma. How do i reset the Z axis to zero so i can calibrate this sheet?

OK, i have flashed an upgrade, all went well. However, when trying to start the first layer calibration, the extruder hits the G10 board and crashes. Any ideas on this Hello?

OK if that doesn't work put tinfoil on top of g10 while it does 9 point calibration then just before it starts print remove it try put it under g10 first though

I have tried with tin foil under the G10 board, on top of the G10 but unable to pause it when it does the 9 point calibration. Even tried putting the original hot plate back on the bed with the G10 on top of that but the PINDA still does not find the steel sheet and crashes.

Now i'm stuck !! 😥

When it does the 9 point cm calibration the nozzle will lift slightly and go to the front of the bed pull it from the back trust me it's the only way
