Bed Height

The right side of my print bed's height-screws are maxed out and I want to have a bit more clearance between it and the nozzle. What should I be looking for to get more clearance. It seems something is off by making the right side a bit higher but I cannot identify it. I was thinking to adjust the z stop but it is screwed in to the frame and cannot be altered.

Thanks for the help

Am I wrong or is the distance between the two vertical parts slightly off? I think the right site has about 1mm more distance between them than the left. Is this adjustable? Maybe this is the problem? Please advise. Thanks!

Re: Bed Height

After the build you need to adjust the right side of the printer to be the same as the left side, by rotating the right Z threaded rod. Then you move on to the calibration of the bed. As I see and pointed on the Google+, you might have positioned the Y axis bit to high in the frame and that leaves very little space for the final bed calibration. You can compensate for that by lifting the z-endstop-holder parts a few millimetres up on the Z smooth rods, which will move the point of actuation of the Z endstop switches.
