Re: Prints either 1) Stringy 2) Not at all 3) Drags the print

200C is at best, your guess for a printing temp. First, I'd make sure the material is dry. PLA and so on can all attract moisture so drying before use is a great best practice. Also, I would do a temperature tower to find out what that material's ideal print temp is. EVERY machine is different and I...

Re: 3D printing safety

Remote monitoring is a good start, something like Octoprint with the Obico plugin Safety Enclosure to contain the print so you aren't spreading fumes throughout your home. Proper ventilation, either outside or filtration, using something like a BOFA device Fire safety, I use WhamBamSystems The Cloud...

Re: Creality CR 10S Heat bed not working

Sounds like a defective MOSFET? Where did you get it? Amazon or?
I usually go direct to Tiny Machines for Creality parts

Re: Bed Temp Calibration

Well a few things, Creality is giving you specs for their bed. I suspect that stock bed is a 24v bed? You said you went with an AC 500W bed. What thermosistor is that using? There are different types out there, so it may be different that what the Ender 5 Pro's FW is set to You say resin, then ASA, ...

Re: What the heck happened here??

I'm not as savvy with resin as others, but I know there is a issue where suction can pull the part off or deform it

Re: Bed Mesh Disaster

I'm impressed - you've really junked the stock crap from Anycubic and put some quality hardware in there. The Slice Engineering Mosquito Magnum is a great hotend. I don't know anything about Klipper - I just haven't gotten there yet, so I can't offer anything super constructive. Have you checked Red...

Re: Machine won't update firmware

I've had to do this a lot with the three CR-10S machines I upgraded to SKR Mini E3 v3 and the TFT35 screens

I upload via vsCode, then after uploading the new firmware, I do an M502 and M500

It sounds like you are using some pre made firmware?

Re: Sticky Residue Buildup in heatbreak and heater block - Ender 3

Yeah that's something I encountered on my CR-10 stock hot ends and upgraded to all metal, direct drive setups. The tube would start to get cooked and cause extrusion (under extrusion) issues.

There are a lot of nice upgrades out there. I love the Bondtech DDX upgrades
