Of course you can just make the hole larger in the CAD file and reprint.

If a 25mm cube prints as 25.04 it may not be because the scale is off.
You would only know that if you printed a second 50mm cube and it was
50.08 My guess is that on your printer the 50mm cube would be 50.04
The printer should have both a scale factor and a bias. you would hope the
scale is 1.

You might need to measure it. As it is STL that will end up being
vertex-to-vertex so may take a few attempts to find the maximum.

You can do this in Cura.

I use glue stick then gently wipe it around with a damp paper towel to smooth
it before I start the printer. The heating bed dries the glue.

I used Bulldog clips. I cut the handles short on to of them, to stop them
fouling the uprights as the platform passes through. Basically, I used 1 clip

I'd 3D print some low profile clips for the glass plate, or (my
preference) use high temperature double sided adhesive to secure the
glass plate to the print bed. I initially thought I'd be swapping glass
beds between prints, but in practice, I prefer having the glass bed

Just print a test object. If the motor misses steps you can hear it.
Also, you can adjust the acceleration limit in Cura. I think this is the
best place to do it too. In Cura you know what you are printing and can
