An Ender 3 v2 with the plate on backwards.
Just be aware that the plastic shroud tends to disintegrate over time.

Wait… The black layer is meant to go on the under side? That makes no sense when there is print on it

I said backwards, not upside down. You have the logo facing the back of the machine.

Ah got it. Just thought you meant that the plastic peels off if i used it that way round lol
I do rotate the bed occasionally. I feel like it wears evenly but i guess i could just rotate the print instead.
Well well … I don’t really care too much about apearances anyway.

It actually IS possible to print on the plain glass on the other side. Many early machines only had glass as a build plate, so that’s valid - especially with various other materials.
The black surface does wear out over time, when you need to replace it, a magnetic sheet + PEI build surface is probably what you want to move to.
