I think that they went with a different extruder and hotend for packaging reasons. The normal sprite would stick out to the front, where you would have plenty of space on a bedflinger, but thats not an option on a bed lifter, you would need a larger frame or limit your travel space. This also makes sense (smaller frame) since creality paid attention to keep everything within the frame, so you can bolt panels directly to the frame as enclosure and a smaller enclosure means higher ambient temperatures. Its also a pretty common fan duct design for such a printer, a different orientation would mean more space taken up by the tool head, the only other way would be mounting the fan over the x axis extrusion, but that would also be a loss of travel space

Great video! Like your quirky sense of huma' that you add in there. The grinding noise is a "dirty" bearing or a missing bearing ball. Majority of the cheaper linear bearing are sent with tons of machining debris. You don't notice the effect 'cause it's on the Z. Take it off, swirl it in alcohol, run a lint free rag through it, add l'un and you are off to the race again.

Yeah, autoexposure & autofocus can be a bit annoying at times, but I don’t have the mental bandwidth to deal with all that while filming. There are whole takes that are out of focus or too dark when I do too much manual stuff, but also happens with auto settings. Really I just need a cameraman 🎥 I always use the 50% shutter rule, so usually 1/60th shutter speed at 30fps I’m going to try using f/11 so autofocus is less of an issue and maybe then I’ll have enough mental energy to take on the exposure settings, which I guess would just be the ISO setting since I’m already doing shutter and aperture anyways.

Make sure you have enough space for it though! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9qaeJaCprXPh5c.html I view the Ender 3 and Ender 5 as more of a project printer. Great if you want to spend time working on it and upgrading it because there are a bunch of aftermarket parts available for it. After investing about $250 in upgrades and about 4 hours upgrading my Ender 5 S1, it’s an absolutely awesome machine. But not everyone wants the printer to be the hobby, they want to use it to do other hobbies 😁

The 3 wheel vs 4 wheel explanation does not make sense. Sure, if both bottom wheels and both top wheels would be exactly aligned, then you'll be spreading the pressure at the bottom over both of those wheels, but the majority of that pressure is coming from you tensioning both of them against the beam, so that is also doubled. The real problem with 4 wheels is the fact that they can be misaligned. Having 1 wheel at the bottom center will only allow you to get the tension wrong, but if you tension it enough, it will pull the carriage flat onto the beam. With 4 wheels you can tension 1 of the bottom wheels less than the other, which can cause instability in the carriage. It's a bit like mounting a flat surface (like a bed) at 4 points, while everyone knows that 3 points define a plane and that hence adding a 4th just causes the risk of not having one of them in the exact same plane as the other 3 and then curving what should have been a flat surface.

With 4 it is a "statically indeterminate structure" But this kind of thing is common. You can get it close enough by hand if you know what to look for. But it does open the door for error. You could just tension one of the wheels and leave the other loose if you wanted 3 wheels! Should cars have 4 wheels instead of 3? The 4th wheel makes it nearly impossible to PERFECTLY align all 4 wheels. But it has benefits in weight distribution and handling.

@@NathanBuildsRobots The drawback when only tensioning one of the 2 bottom wheels is that it is no longer in the center between the 2 top ones. I stand with my believe that 3 wheels here is better than 4. With a car you have an additional dimension which plays a role, but that does not hold for these rollers. And sure, 4 wheels will work fine as the wheels allow some flex, but you'll end up with uneven distribution of pressure over the wheels and hence some wearing out more than the others and there really isn't much benefit in adding that additional wheel, just more complexity.

its an id10t error not the bed surface. It has to cool and then its magnetic so you can take it off and flex it and prints pop right off. When prints finish on my printer i take the magnetic plate off and put it on top of my washer machine lid and it 10 to 20 seconds it allows my print to pop right off. You boasted about reviewing tons of these machines, but this is the first video I've ever watched of yours (last also) and it's like you have never 3d printed before.

I’d just like to add that Klipper is the future of 3D printing, and the future is upon us. Also, 4D and beyond is coming hot on the heels of Klipper. So that’s something to try to focus on more than what companies are doing to keep churning out variations on the Anet A8. BIQU is on the cusp, I think, so that’s where the action and the best ride/profit is.

The pad is a awesome new tool that will be hard to be to switch to klipper.

Great hardware design, but the departure from a highly moddable platform based on open-source hardware, like the Ender 3,5, etc. has advantages as well.

IMO its by far the WORST printer they've ever made... Twisted x-axis on a large majority of peoples printers, auto bed levelling with Sonic Pad is completely broken because the levelling probe misses the bed entirely so you can't complete it, frame is out of square from the factory by several millimetres so you need to pull the top and bottom frames apart and re-assemble. I made the mistake of buying several to fill out my farm, same issues with every single one. I now own 3 big paper weights and a dodgy sonic pad. To add insult to injury Creality wants me to pay for not only shipping back to them but also for the free shipping to originally send them to me when I bought them! Absolute joke of company.

If you want some help there are a lot of Ender 5 users on my discord. Sounds like you have the frame issues sorted, last thing you’ll need to do is fix the printer config file in klipper.
