    Could probably be better. Everything on Y looks good but it looks like it's high on the right side of the bed. Adjust one of your Z axis and you should be able to get it closer.

    Use an indicator and make sure the bed is as mechanically level as possible with shims under the magnets. That was the biggest aid for me in helping auto level
