Hey guys, complimentary to the shim posted by “NeedItMakeIt” here, I designed those shims to level the bed in it's back corners (those corners are hard to level using only the 3 leadscrews as adjustment).

They are designed to be placed between the strain gauge and the bed's frame. I recommend using either ABS or PETG because of the heat around the region. ABS would be a preference over PETG because it is relatively more rigid than the latter, working better as a shim because of it.

I made the shim with a thickness of 0.2mm, but you can scale the z axis (excluding x &y of course) to match whatever the thickness you may need!

The leveling of my bed can still get better than it is now and the print screens I showed are only from my first iteration. I just don't have more patience for that right now and don't want to get too crazy about it lol.
