This is a page describing OSE's knowledge about different FFF 3D Printer build plates.

Commercial Solutions

BuildTak

http://buildtak.com

A black tape that's easy to apply and remove from any material. Thin enough so inductive sensing is possible if glued to metal surface. Might make prints stick too hard if temperatures are high and first layer gets squashed down too hard.

Geckotek

http://www.geckotek3d.com/

Sheets of metal with coating. The metal is flexible, which eases print removal. It also allows inductive sensing. We should not use their magnet solution before we know if it would interfere with the inductive sensing.

PrintBite

Zebra Plate

3D Eez glue

Has some PVA in it.

Build Yourself Solutions

Clean Glass

Borosilicate lasts longer, but common mirror glass works. Needs to be kept very clean.

Clean Metal Sheet

Not very flat in most cases. Spreads heat well.

Printed Circuit Board

Kapton Tape

PVA Based Glue

Blue Painters Tape
