Still under warranty, think I'll get a new printer or just new parts for the printer?

I'll counter this with: My K1 SE has been fantastic out of the box. After over 200 print hours, it has only gotten better with fine-tuning calibration for models and filaments. Bad shit happens sometimes, and these machines are very easily serviceable and parts are generally pretty cheap ... whether

WOW JUST HATS OFF

This is my second creality printer. My first was an Ender 3 S1. I had 1 problem with that printer which was very common on that model. I emailed creality about it only asking to buy the replacement part. They instead sent me one for free. Ran that printer for 4-5 years. I just got the k1 SE about 4

Errei feio? Ender 3v3 KE vs Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92pD89MgoPgDá uma olhada nesse vídeo aqui, não acho ela inferior nãoO que já vi é que tirando da caixa a neptune vai ter um resultado um pouco melhor, mas fazendo uns mods simples (tirar o filamento de cima da estrutura e por um reforço pra não vibrar tanto) a KE igua

Which one should i get?

i believe the k1 has gotten refreshed a couple times to be more reliable than it was at launch. i have a k1 se and have had basically no issues in 300 print hours so far. that being said, if you want a printer that works and you don’t have to think about, for better or for worse, go with the bambu.

First 3D Printer K1SE

Congrats!I'll try to help, but will answer the first question last. Its wordy Do I need to enclose it for CF? Nope. PLA-CF is a low warp material, like PLA. What you may need, atleast for TPU is a dry box and filament drier. It likes to be dry. Havn't played around with thy roll of PLA-CF yet. the P

Q2 vs Q2C

No i haven't but its like the same situation as the creality k1 se to k1c. All the parts are available for the transition you just have to do it yourself then turn the heater on in the configuration file its not hard if you are handy with tools and config files

Rooting the K2

There’s nothing I can see inherently wrong with the K2 SE’s design and it does seem to be an incremental improvement over the K1 SE, would you agree? I just think it’s misleading to put the SE in the K2 family. I don’t KNOW the details, but Creality doesn’t seem to have much co-ordination between it

3D Printer buying advice?

If I was in your position, I’d look at a Creality K1 SE or something like that. You can get a refurbed unit for $160 shipped on eBay directly from Creality. CoreXY is a huge upgrade over an ender bedslinger. IIRC, the SE isn’t enclosed but that can be added later if you choose.
