Hey, so I bought and I assembled an Ender 3 recently and I tried to follow the tutorials on bed leveling. When I tried to do the paper thing, the space between the nozzle and bed is too big so no matter how much I turn the wheel under the bed, it’s not getting close enough! What do I do?

You have to loosen the bed screws for the bed to raise tight ingredients them will make it drop

I raised but there’s still some space in the middle. I’ve noticed that the nozzle is more extended in some videos. Is that something?

if thats the highest your bed can go I suggest lowering your Z limit switch at that point

this is the video I used for mine

side note in the event that you upgrade your springs (which I highly recommend you do) you will probably have to raise it back up

#

also I recommend you have your springs at a mid way point instead of fully lose or fully tight when moving the Z stop incase of an event where you need to adjust your bed
