  1. I am yet to buy a 3D printer but find your videos to be very informative, thank you for that. I like the Evaluation Scores on your Recommendation List and wonder if you could include it at the end of each video, to see how it stacks up to your recommended choice.

  2. Would you recommend a regular Ender 3 V3 or a BambuLab A1? They are basically the same price, only thing I don't like about the Bambu is the lack of linear rods on the bed. The 256mm bed size on the A1 vs 220mm on the V3 probably puts the A1 ahead. What do you think?

  3. Newbie question… Help! I just got my Ender 3 V3 Plus today and I love it! I put it together, turned it on, and WHAM! Printed the Blendy with no problems. BUT… I'm stuck! I cant seem to figure out how to print anything from any of the other 3d models I downloaded. There has to be something really simple that I'm missing, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what it is. I can copy files onto the zip drive that came with the printer, but the printer's computer doesn't see them. I tried using a different zip drive, but same thing… I plug the drive into the printer and is shows as being empty… no files. What am I missing? Any help or suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

  4. While it printed very fast and having the prints turn out well, I ended up returning my V3 Plus.

    It was SO loud and when slowing down the squeaking sounded like a dental drill. I couldn’t stand it.

  5. I downloaded the newest Creality "Slicer" onto a Win10 machine an hour ago. WHAT A MESS! First of all it asked to AMS information on my K1 and K1Max? To my knowledge Creality isn't even SELLING their "new" AMS system yet????? Secondly, the interface was FROZEN on my 27" monitor. The message said there's a problem with missing AMS information (well, yea!) and you have to "fix it" but the entire interface was LOCKED SOLID. WARNING: Creality's newest slicer is DOA on arrival. Do Not Download and INSTALL.

  6. Another great video. I always appreciate that you are so in-depth, compare the printer to the market (this is huge and a shame many others don't do consistently), and don't let the companies sway your approach just because they're sponsoring. Friends and i agree that a company willing to send you their printer for review is only a good thing. Because it shows they're open to a genuine audit. (Not entirely true but it's one positive point when the company could be content with zero ethical points)

  7. I hope the bed has its own accelerometer to measure resonance, if it is using the one in the print head then I don't know what kind of magic they are doing to try and tune the input shaper. The K1 had the problem of measuring only the x-resonance and using the same input shaping values for the y-axis, even though they will not behave the same mechanically.

  8. Another very good technical review. Please consider adding another test to assess print quality at low to moderate speeds. It would be good to do a test where you print a tall angular object at the same low speed speed on each machine or even a test where you find the quality sweet spot on a given machine. Many of us will reduce speed to achieve a quality print and adding a suitable test to explore this would make a great many of us very happy. Many thanks.

  9. Actually, V3 Plus profiles are included with Creality Slicer V4 that comes with the printer, and in V5.03 that is available on their Github account… Don't know why the 5.0.0 is available on official site though…
