My pleasure!!

bambu and orca have such a setting. It's just that a lot of people don't see her for some reason.

@@Kawasalto oh ok, I really wasn't aware of that, probably because without a multicolor printer you don't bother with it :D

yes the new creality print 5.0 already has this setting also

Only Orca one slicer for all Bambu, Qidi, K2 PLus

That would certainly be an improvement.

me too!

really? That's good to hear.

Have you used the new Creality Print 5.0? Do you know if that is an option? That is a very interesting idea - I never thought of that!

That's a good idea, do you know if any other machines are like that? When I'm playing around with creality print 5.0 I don't see that option to do. But would be something good to add for sure.

I'm not sure if i understand your question. Each of the color changes here are in the same layer. This model has four colors on each layer. for example, the tires at the front are black on the outside and white on the inside. This is on each layer. So one layer of this model has all four colors.

Yes I already know the answer to that question is a yes. The CFS knows what colors are in there so if you keep four white rolls of filament and a huge print, it can run through all four rolls for you.

that is a really good thought! You can literally do whatever you want for your cover!

When it hits against the side of the wall it is cutting the filament, then it rolls back up, the left over amount that's in the nozzle after the cut is then purged out. It will have a clean cut after each color change over.

true - hope they were not disappointed lol

My understanding is the purpose of the block is primarily to prime the temperature and pressure of the nozzle with the new filament, not to purge, hence being a "prime tower". It is closer to the line/pattern before the start of a new print - but per color/per layer.

Think they said in last livestream like mid October for the K2 etc. Didn't say if that was for the CFS units also

NZ can buy from the official Creality store in Australia. So you can get in on the last round of discounts July 1st at 20% off. After we ship the pre-orders they will go on sale, yes October-ish.

@@cliffgardner5717 in one Live Stream they said August for the sale start of the CFS. But don't know if this is still correct.

@mahe7619 maybe they will go on up for sale then. But be a pre-order thing and ship mid to end Oct... As Kevin wrote in a comment below mine, he says after pre-orders ship they will go on sale. But unsure if that's meaning CFS units or the K2 plus itself.

i know, right? I always use gyroid, I love it.

Yes I wanted to make that video yesterday but they just don't have any hooked up like that yet. I'm trying to get one done this week though. I also want to do it, just for fun.

@@kevin.3D a new gantry by Creality or CFS hooked up to a K1 series?

sorry, this was my reply to someone asking about multiple cfs being hooked up. I'm not sure why it jumped to your question. I have no information on K1 series printers and the major surgery they will require. I have the same questions because i have a K1 and K1C so i'm curious. But right now everyone is hyper-focused on the K2 Plus and getting it delivered as promised. Number one question on every livestream - when will it be available for the K series and Ender 3 V3? lol

@@kevin.3D Yeah, it keeps feeling like they're gonna say, "nah, nevermind." to all of us waiting on an official linear rail setup. I just want to know if it's worth even doing at this point or if I should just go ahead and do the community mod. :(

something to do with nozzle pressure and building it up before resuming the print, I'm waiting for tool changers to come out too much wasted time and filament on these AMS systems. What people don't realize until after purchas is that a 5 hour single color print goes up to 20 hours for the same print in multicolor and you wast 1/2 the filament as well! Thats if the AMS works perfectly! Running an AMS quadruples your chances of having a print failure!

It's like the unicorn nozzle in the K1C. But a little longer and different. Has a hardened stell inner liner head, titanium section inside the heat block with copper outter layer to help with heating up quicker.

perfect answer - thank you!

@@cliffgardner5717 So it should be good with CF filaments i would think. :)

@philbalcar yeah, I don't see it being an issue to run CF filaments. The 350⁰ degree nozzle/120⁰ degree bed and heated chamber kind of all point to it being built for nylon/CF and those other pain in the ass filaments... lol.

this is an option in the slicer settings

@@kevin.3D right click on the object on Bambu shows the option do not know about this slicer I would think it is or going to be

the cutter is not above the extruder, it gets cut before moving to the back. When the print head moves to the left and "bangs" against the side twice - that is the cutter working. I agree with you that I wish we could see a little better inside on this video but this was as far as i could reach in and zoom - my big fat hands seems to get in the way.

@@kevin.3D nah, you just had the camera tilted down too much. Does the filament get cut between the hotend and the extruder? I don't understand why the filament doesn't get retracted before cutting, to minimise the poop.

​@@3DPrinterDoctor retraction risks hot/deformed filament being pulled back into the extruder, basically undoing the purpose of the heatbreak and risking clogs and gumming up the extruder. You can still do _some_ retraction, but not nearly as much as one would hope. It is in the realm of static g-code macros, so there have been plenty of experiments where people have both tuned both this sort of retraction distance before cutting, plus tuned the total filament volume needed to flush the rest of the path/nozzle down.

Problem with the Prusa xl is the price, because you got to pay for 5 toolheads instead of one

@nonamenone4540 yep, true. If it didn't cost over 4k for the while setup I would've gotten that instead of the p1s combo

maybe our next livestream can host this topic - we can have a nice calm discussion about believing in ourselves and being makers. Zora will buy some candles - sounds very peaceful lol

paper spools are no problem kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g9WdqJOS19bXdok.htmlsi=TeX0mlwA7aF9DxOe

So we can see inside workings better. Also it's a magnetic cover so easy to remove and put back on.

good answer. Yeah the cover hides stuff and looks nice but there is no fan or anything so why not show as much as possible.

​@@kevin.3DI also remember that in the videos there was a cap with additional ventilation holes, are there any problems with the hotend heatsink?

the plan is to make it work for the K1 series, yes. Eventually.

@@kevin.3D excellent news!!

​​@@lucasfernandez3653don't expect that to come until start of 2025. The K2 plus/CFS will come out October and will be the main focus for a while, pushing sales of them to make $ on the new new product. Then either right before the holidays or 1st thing starting new year the CFS upgrade for K1-series lineup will come out. It's going need alot of R&D and changes to make work with K1-series lineup. Needs new backpanel and poop chute nozzle wiper, also will need new nozzle/extruder printhead design so can cut the filament etc... I also don't see the K1-series CFS upgrade costing any less than $500 for full kit, CFS alone will be around $275-300 each to match others pricing.

Would you want a Fing video of the spools just rolling....can clearly see the color change.. don't be a clown..
