First layer, you gotta be kidding me

Similar experience here, longtime Creality tinkerer, I have a modded CR-10 and and Ender 3. I recently picked up a P1S combo for Black Friday and the level of ‘just hit print’ is a welcome change. The only “mods” I foresee are some dust covers and waste chute.

Bambu Lab overtakes Creality as the world's top-selling budget 3D printer brand — resurgence in 3D printer market fueled by budget options

No surprise there. The technology is just fantastic. Creality had (has?) a reputation for being a tinkerer's brand. I started with an Ender 3 Pro, and you could truly mod it in any way to do anything you could possibly think of. Then I got tired of tweaking and calibrating and wanted something that

Ready. Set. neXt.

They are creating a price ladder lineup. Very similar to apple. It ends in the consumer moving towards the higher end due to the added features. Creality was a bottom chaser and they also messed up by calling everything an Ender 3. I can tell you as somebody who uses 3D printer a lot for work, they

Is there anything like this for the ender 3?

I know this isn't what your asking for, but for what it's worth.... I tried every leveling "trick" in the book with my original Ender. I even mounted a dial caliper to the print head and leveled that way to be SUPER precise. I only quit having adhesion issues when: I upgraded my bed with a good piec

Ender 3 Misconception

Ya the issue mainly is people dont want to tinker and tune when they buy a product. Especially when they see printers now like bambu which basically just work perfect out of the box. You also pay for that pleasure. Ive had friends ask me if they should get into 3d printing or should they get an ende

Is it over?

Wtf happened here? And this is most definitely fixable. It would definitely be easier if it was one of the OG creality machines such as Ender 3 V1 or CR 10, but at least from here it looks like it's mostly just bent metal. And who says it has to stay original? That broken top piece for example, if y

Klipper printer from scratch

Why are you cloning an Ender 3? Don't take this the wrong way, I love my Ender 3, but that's quite an old design by now and it's also one of the most copied designs. I feel like something more similar to the Ender 5 might be better suited to take advantage of klipper's features. A Voron style would

Thinking of Switching from Bambu Labs to Creality – Worth It?

Absolutely, anytime. Creality is the real 3D printer experience, you will get to know it inside out while happily tinkering with it. I've been doing nothing but printing calibration cubes for three days. But to answer your questions: You can't put a pricetag on such an experience, typical Bambuhead
