Heatbed standoffs
Wonder if anyone knows how long the heatbed standoffs are? I know they are 3mm x .5 thread. I have one that stripped out the threads and would like to see if I can find them in the USA.
Re: Heatbed standoffs
Would you measure one of the remaining spacers?

Re: Heatbed standoffs
That's not much of an answer. I'm at work and have some hex stock that I can make some out of. Guess I'll have to wait until I get home to measure them.
Why do so many people bother to give useless answers these days.

Because so many people ask what appear to be silly questions... Just say you are at work and can't get to measure one; that will demonstrate that you are not being lazy!

EDIT: And the stand-offs appear to be 5mm...

Re: Heatbed standoffs
Sorry Brett, I am not at home either.
your original post didn't mention making them yourself.
if you have the capability why not make 7 new ones about 12mm tall, then you can change them all out and have a spare... I believe the screw thread is 3mm...
then at your leisure you can measure the originals, make a couple of replacements and restore full build height next time you replace the PEI Sheet
