It's hard to justify calling the print quality "outstanding" and "amazing" when there are huge blobs in the corners of the calibration cube. This has been an issue on all the Ender 3 printers, and they still haven't fixed it. It would only take a small mod to their mainboard to enable the Linear Advance feature in Marlin which would then fix this problem. The whole reason I switched to Klipper on my E3V2 was because of the huge blobs on corners. It might not seem like a big issue if you are just printing stand-alone parts, but if you are printing parts that are meant to fit together,, then it is a real problem. Apart from that, good review as always, thanks for sharing your thoughts

I’ve printed tons of functional parts without linear advance and haven’t had problems. I just adjust the scale of the object in Cura by 0.5 percent.
@johnrobinson36422 жыл бұрын
@@larrythehedgehog If you're happy with that result, then that's all that matters. But I wasn't happy with it. If you print 2 of those calibration cubes that are designed to fit together in a confined space, then the cubes will only touch in the corners, and you end up with a great big gap in between the parts, and I just don't find that to be an acceptable solution. The point that I was making is that this has been a problem on all of the Ender 3 printers, and it is something that would be very easy for Creality to fix, they just need to add UART control of the stepper drivers. To me, it seems silly that they would add all new bells and whistles to make a $500 printer, but they still can't get the fundamentals right, As I said ealier, the whole reason I ditched Marlin and switched over to klipper on my E3V2 is that Klipper is able to solve this problem without the need for UART control of the stepper drivers.
@johnrobinson36422 жыл бұрын
@JCS Marlin has a built-in feature called Linear Advance which is aimed at fixing this issue, however, it requires that the mainboard have software control over the stepper-motor drivers to work, and Creality, in their wisdom, decided that software control wasn't necessary. This is why Creality printers still suffer from this problem to this day. Klipper is an alternative firmware for your printer. It is superior to Marlin in most aspects IMHO, however it requires a raspberry pi to run. Klipper has a similar feature to Marlin's Linear Advance called Pressure Advance, however, it does not require software control of the stepper drivers, and so will work with any of the Creality mainboards. It was exactly this issue that led me to ditching Marlin and moving over to Klipper, but Klipper has so many other benefits that it has just been win-win So, in Summary, to fix this issue on your ender, you either need to a) switch mainboards to one that has software control over the stepper drivers (most so), or b) Buy a Raspberry Pi and switch to Klipper.
@johnrobinson36422 жыл бұрын
@JCS I just set up Klipper on an Ender 3 pro a couple of weeks ago, and so I have the config files ready to go for you (depending on what mainboard you have). If they are of any use to you, reach out to me here and I will send them to you. In any case, good luck! PS Octoprint is good, but there are better options for use with Klipper. I would suggest looking at Fluidd. In fact, you can just down load a fluiddpi image, burn it to an sd card, and load up the config files, and you'd be up and running in no time

Excellent Review, But if i may add suggestion With this price i believe creality can: 1. Throw away the delrin wheel, its easy wear and tear also hassle to change it to PC wheel. Instead creality should use SGR rail like kingroon can use all 3 axis with linear SGR without robbing your wallet. 2. use all linear rail SGR or HG on X&Y Axis 2. Fanless PSU 3. Silent Board fan 4 . Bed Tramming feature on the Software 5. Raspberry GPIO compatible port on board

It's been proven a few times that Linear rails do not improve print quality over well adjusted, quality wheels. There are a few YT videos on this subject by well regarded people. such as Thomas, Teaching Tech,..ect. Linear rails make things easy to maintain. Quality wheels, properly adjusted produce excellent results.

This is a great video. I wish I'd seen it when setting up mine. I will say there are a number of things I found difficult when setting up as this was my first 3d printer. However you covered more than anyone else I've seen when reviewing it. A rather large problem I found was that you cannot pause and resume prints. There's a bug in the included LCD screen where you cannot resume after putting a pause command in your gcode. It won't even resume if you use a timed pause. So you cannot do multi-color prints, print on fabric, add magnets, etc. This may not matter for some, but ut is one of the reasons I bought a Sonic Pad - which was a huge pain in the ass to get working (though your other video was invaluable once I *did* sort out the firmware issues.) I actually love the printer when it's working but I think consumer-ready is still a ways off for Creality. There a number of silly little things that could be fixed with better programming.
