The frame check should be done at print temperature #494

Now, I did watch the video for the frame check section, but that was a couple weeks ago, so I don't remember if it was mentioned in it, but forgive me if it was.

I think the frame check should specify that it should be done at temperature. I just ran into an issue where, my concentric nuts and other parts of my printer were tightened when my printer was at room temperature. I got everything tight, and there was absolutely no wobble, but after I turned the printer on and waited for it to get up to temperature, the heat loosened up some of the bolts and introduced some wobble that was affecting bed mesh measurements and print quality. As soon as I did a frame check with the printer at temperature, the wobbling was solved.

I think this is something a lot of newbies might miss, and might be worth mentioning in the Frame Check section.
