+# Bed Mesh Temp Change Patch
+
+## Summary
+Binary patching of 0x36d7bc performed to update the bed mesh preheat command from "M109 S60" to "M109 SXX" using the BED_MESH_TEMP value (35–99°C)
+
+## Summary
+Allow user to set default meshing temp between 35C and 99C (hardcoded val is 60C)
+
+---
+
+## Verification
+- [x] Confirm patched binary boots normally  
+- [ ] Confirm mesh happens at XXC
+- [ ] Verify mesh saves
