    Hey Palmi,

    You can use auto bed leveling but you'd have to run the code with the nozzles cool so as to not scorch your acrylic bed.

    There's 2 screws holding the switch in. You'll need to remove those screws and turn the switch around. Might involve taking off the case lid to access them.

    The best way to level the stock bed on drawer slides is Tessarects bed leveling mod

    Everyone starts a newb :)

    G29 but it won't do you any good without the auto level switches installed.

    What do you mean. You don't know how to level the Z carriage against the bed? Or the bed levelness itself?

    Looks like a good start. Is that PLA? You might try enabling cooling settings and retraction.
