Automatic mesh bed levelling is a great addition to 3D printers. It makes the first layer repeatable and convenient, especially with a warped bed. Sometimes it's not the best solution, however, owing to cost or added weight and complexity to the print head. Manual mesh bed levelling is a firmware only solution that can achieves great results for free!
In this video, the need for mesh bed levelling is explained and then a step by step guide is supplied to enable and calibrate the feature on your Marlin based 3D printed. This was a perfect fit for my Seckit SKGO, where I wanted to keep everything as light as possible.
