Anything to insulate the bottom of the heatbed is a good thing in My opinion (Some have used radiator reflector pads but be careful with them that you don't run the bed to hot else they can melt the polystyrene).
My PiXL is getting very close now just need to wire up my Z Probe from DC42 kapton my glass plates do an auto calibrate and test print with it (getting time to do all this is the issue at the moment SWMBO keeps getting in the way as well as the day job lol)
I've heard of people using MDF under a heatbed - it's usually even in thickness. I don't know if it would cope with 110C - 120C though. The advantage of a board under the bed is that I will be able to run a fan or two to cool the RAMPS board without chilling the heatbed from underneath.
Any more details on the Z probe? Sounds intriguing!
As for finding time - I'm retired, and my wife is pretty cool about my weird hobbies!Still don't find time to do anything though...

Thank you Andy! Looks good.
Dougal thank you for offering, if it is not to much trouble to make work 310 diameter; however, I can edit if you send me the stl, I have sketchup w/ plugins but relatively new with it.
