Qidi Q2 has been amazing for me. Only other experience is with a Creality k1 SE and it’s a headache. The Qidi has been flawless out of the box.

Just got one for Christmas so here is my insight: Third party extruders like DXC aren't natively supported. There are different upgrade kits for different models, I have a K1 SE modded as a K1C and not sure what upgrade kit I got, but it required some minor modifications to the cable chain mount to

You are not looking at the floor of 3D printing, which is just sticking to Bambu printers, their PLA filaments, sticking to the default Bambu Studio settings and having your filament enclosed. That's what a lot of antis really do. (I guess either I need to add a disclaimer that I do use an X1C on th

ok so long story short the reason the cfs wont work and it didnt work for me is that the ender 3 v3 normal has that thing where you have to lock/unlock to pull/push filament and it also needs a filament cutter to cut the filament and the k1 upgrade kit wont work because the ender 3 v3 has a slightly

Did u ever figure this out? Almost all my prints on the K1 have bad angled overhang surfaces. (Not the surface that is usally on top of the supports) it happens on both my K1C and K1 Se, the creality regular slicer didnt have this issue. However i cant revert due to me having a custom macro for the

Oddly, Creality advertised the K1 camera as being an upgrade, but I have read and heard that the K2 SE isn't wired for the camera - unlike the K1 SE, which is... Very confusing to me

Ender 3 Pro (5+ years) -> Creality K1 SE (2 weeks, developed random fault, returned) -> P1S (current). For me, yes. I’m in the midst of some heavy prototyping cycles and lost time to playing around with a printer is more costly than anything. The K1 SE is a $250 race car, but it’s very demanding fro

I started with an ender3v2 and always wanted to upgrade to a voron, but I'm cheap AF and don't want to spend more than $200-300 on a printer. I ended up getting a k1 SE a few months back and while I'm impressed with it, it leaves a lot to be desired. I hated having to use their creality klipper what

My first was a K1 SE, as stated in my post, followed by a k1c and k1 max I also am forming the opinion that alot of people don't understand its still a tinkers hobby. Yes, I have delt with Creality Customer service, and its infuriating responce times (and I do understand they are many times zones aw
