Mini FAQ

Heated bed always on—safe? Low-watt warmth; route cords safely and check covers monthly.
Perch slipping? Degrease glass/cups with isopropyl, warm cups, press center→edges, wait 1 hr before full load.
Tree wobble? Use a flat-weave rug + felt pads; re-tighten fittings after the first few days.
