K1C

I can't confirm whether or not this is the cause of the problem as I am not about to disassemble my K1C. From a printer-mechanic point of view, this does not make a whole lot of sense. A wobbly bushing on the second gantry rod should not cause dimensional inaccuracies. If it were a fault (and not de

The k2 was designed with multimaterial in mind, it functions far better as a whole than either of crealitys attempts at cfs and cfs-c The K1 makes a larger purge tower with the cfs-c to compensate for the lack of a poop chute

I hate to say "lemon" because there are so many things that can go wrong with a printer and you just have to "fix it". I feel for Creality as 3d printing is still somewhat of an art. Temperatures, flow rates, speed. If I had not had a K1C for over a year and learned quite a bit about 3d printing alr

no, at least not for most people. the issue is a combination of uneven thermal expansion because the middle of the bed is hotter, and internal strain in the rolled aluminum bed. Actually good beds are made of 8mm thick cast aluminum that expands uniformly. This bed is made of rolled 3mm aluminum and

That's a bit of a stretch of the reality, and the Ender3 is an absolutely terrible comparison to make - it stil lives on today in active 3rd party after market development hardware wise. It made Creality what it is today, unfortunately that wasn't due to their excellent service or workmanship but th

Yes you have a point, and i agree with you too. I'm just simply enjoying how simple these printers are, especially since my experiences have not been that great overall. The K1C was doing well for the first 2 days, then it got homing and Z motor issues so that was real unfortunate.. like i said i ha

The Cryo plate is a blessing indeed (got one for my K1C). About the 3d printer repair men statement: I do confirm it unfortunately. I like to tinker and have no problem doing that if needed, but at least in my case I feel that Creality uses the tinkering / modability idea as an excuse to skip their

Hey thanks for the reply. Definitely reassuring that it's a beefier unit. My K1C wiggles a bunch during prints on account of being so light. I put it on a big cement paver to add some mass. I've had nothing but good experiences with the Creality ecosystem since I started and I'd like to stick with t

Well, I bought my K1C as my first 3d-printer. I needed to print some functonally brackets. And the price was OK, but the root access was what tipped me over. The printer has served me good for a year now. And then I got stupid enough to buy the CFS.. ..This has left me with a sour taste for the Crea

I have some suggestions - First check the PTFE tube at the back of the printer where it comes from the filament run out sensor to the chain carrier. Two of my K1C printers had the PTFE tube pinched in that area causing the filament to pull very hard. Simple test, remove the filament from the extrude
