Please note that due to the upgrade of the filament detector, you now need to print a new filament holder as shown in the picture and pay attention to the orientation of the filament detector.

@MrCrispy13 18 күн бұрын

ordered my 5m a few weeks ago. its amazing. decided to print the enclosure to help with holding in the heat as I was getting some warping on bigger pieces. it took a few days too get everything printed and its all put together. 1. it looks way better now 2. it holds way more heat 3. THIS DRAG CHAIN IS THE MOST REDICULOUS UNUSABLE POS about this build. all it did was kink up and bind in the back corner when needing to print on that corner. I could see it being very helpful without the enclosure because of the risers. I ended up just taking it off and shortening the feed tube about 4 inches. other than that, I'm very happy with the 5M and the enclosure.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you're happy with the 5M and the enclosure. Regarding the drag chain, please check if the clips of the drag chain are installed in the right direction

@istayhighi1540 25 күн бұрын

Got my 5m last night and i am very happy with it. I sold my bambu labs x1c because most of the new printers have the same features and since the x1c held its price i sold it for almost the same price i got it for a year later. I didn't expect the 5m to be as good as the x1c due to the price difference, but i gotta say. The first layer goes down 100% perfect every time, unlike my x1c. This machine seems a tiny bit slower, but the quality is amazing.

Nice job Flashforge! I just ordered both the M5 and the M5 pro. I currently have a finder 3 along with several creality printers and I have to say that the finder is by far my favorite printer for the quality, speed, and ease of use. I have had several printers over the years and owning a flashforge has always been the "benz" of printers for me. I am looking forward to my M5 and pro. I will be printing the enclosure for the M5 first, any idea of when the kit will be available? If not I am confident that I can precure the pieces needed, but I feel that flashforge provided parts are better.

The termination of the cable chain (drag chain) seems to have been way over complicated. Both the 100% DIY approach and the "kit" approach (with a replacement of the top of the hot end) seem unnecessarily complicated. The shoulder screw for additional pivoting at the hot end seems unnecessary, and it seems that the same concept was undertaken by whoever designed the 100% DIY solution as well. A simpler approach of a final chain-link piece with a modified end for rigidly attaching to the hot end should be fine. I am undertaking to design such.
