Nozzle physically too far away

My fault. I assumed when you said in the description that "I just installed a new hot end on my Ender V3" you meant an Ender V3. How silly of me. You also STILL bought the wrong hotend. Ender 3 V2 Neo is different. Creality doesn't help by being unimaginative in their naming scheme

What are the must-haves upgrades for the Ender 3?

First step is to look up the pricing of a Bambu Lab A1 in your local currency. IMO, the target cost should be 50% of that or less (preferably much less). It's not 2019 any more and we're not competing against wildly overpriced Prusa MK3's. The amount of printer and ecosystem $300 buys these days is

Prints have beads on surface?

So I just went through hell diagnosing my printer for this exact issue. The blobs are caused by the pauses, the nozzle melts the filament and creates the blob. On the ender 3v2 at least the fan that cools the mainboard is shared PWM with the parts cooling fan. Absurd design. Terrible. I had turned o

What is a better option compared to my ender 3 (that I hate) the creality ke se? Or should I get the bambu lab p1s?

If you hate the ender, you hate unfinished and finicky product. Bambu is literally the opposite. Creality is still figuring it out. Don't let the ecosystem fear mongering get to you by a niche of the community. Bambu delivers

Spring Sale Deals

There are other good brands besides Bambu Lab. I currently own Bambu, Qidi, and Creality. Qidi is my current favorite, although I’ve had some unexplained error messages and firmware crashes. Their Q2 is a very capable machine that produces very nice prints, though. I don’t think I’d buy a Creality t

What this sub feels like lately

This is where the Comparison to Apple falls apart. Bambu shouldn’t gatekeep using AGPL and threaten. They’re in the wrong. Hopefully they can eliminate that code and put an end to all this. This won’t change my mind about using their ECOSYSTEM. I’m not going to pull out my reprap or ender 3 and go t

O que está acontecendo?

Só acho que muita gente criticando a Bambu esquece que quando a A1 entrou no mercado a Creality só tinha bomba, não tinha nada que chegasse perto em qualidade. Foi a Bambu que obrigou várias outras empresas a melhorarem suas ofertas. Tive uma ender 3 v2 e tenho amigos que tiveram a v3 e algumas outr

Next Chapter coming soon...

Creality is probably the worst at moving on too quickly and frankly just having too many machines available at one time. Just looking at their currently offered FDM printers, ignoring Resin and any combos, they have 15 printers available right now. That is too many in my opinion and quite a few of t
