/thing:4583843">As I build my ultra cheap 40$ 3d printer I experimented with cheap 3d printer bed-surfaces. Paper or cardboard is a cheap and easy variant for a 3d printer bed-surfaces.

How to do:

1. Cut the paper or cardboard in the correct size 2. Fix the paper or cardboard on the print-bed with Clamps (like this 1,2). Alternativ you can use Tape or other methods for fixing. 3. Check if you need to level the bed because the Paper or cardboard is a (new) Layer! 4. Now you can test it with the test .stl files! Keep in mind that the paper or cardboard may need to be replaced after printing! If the paper stick to hard on the printed objects you can use water to remove it. If you have other ideas or questions write a comment and I want to answer as soon as possible.
