 one piece of advice: buy some printbite, stick it to the aluminium
plate (after cleaning it - do follow PRECISELY the instructions for
printbite installation).  better, get a MK3 (aluminium) bed plate,
because having a MK2 not in full contact with the aluminium is a pain
(uneven heat distribution and transfer).  i've currently stacked some
cardboard underneath to make the MK2 stop bowing downwards...
*sigh*...

 printbite will stop a world of pain in both making prints stick and
also getting them off.  but *read and follow the instructions*.
