MK3S+ footprint for bench
Forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere, but I couldn’t find the answer. I have an MK3S+ on order and am planning my bench layout. What is the footprint required for the machine? I know from the specs that it’s roughly 20in x 20in, but does that allow for the mesh bed movement? Do I need to add some depth to allow clearance for the mesh bed?

Hi,
You should allow a minimum of 22" x 22". That includes movement of the bed.
Cheers,
Tim

If you add this mod at least you clear up some space in the front and could allow the bed to overhand when extended because the LCD is moved to the front left side - https://www.printables.com/model/85200-lcd-side-mount-mk3s-version-2
