Many thanks for all of the replies. I like the three-point support solution Erik. I will have to see how it works with the curved heated bed. I will try putting a washer between the glass and the heater at each clip - that should reduce any bending. I agree, jstck, the glass can't flex that much. So, I need to consider the x-arm. Am I right in thinking, droftarts, that if there is a flex/twist in the x arm then the angle of the extruder head will also change? Surely since the head moves on the rod it can't actually describe a downwards curve - any up or down movement must be associated with a lateral shift. So, if I print a long x-axis straight bar shouldn't it appear curved in the y direction where the head is moving? I will report back later!

..There is a very clear dip down in the glass at the front left corner where the clamp holds the glass......

We had also thought of using the IR probe as a scanner, but there's a patent on that idea... nothing to stop you, though.
