As an engineer, I really appreciate the Agenda section of the video and your methodology. Also, totally agree with your view of 3D printers as tools; it's nice when the tools that support your making "just work."
Just got this printer yesterday and never messed with 3d printing before. I had the bunny printing within 25 mins and it printed flawlessly. I was expecting it to be a melted glob of plastic. I instantly fell in love with 3d printing and this printer!
I just got this printer and am very happy with it. It's the first 3d printer I've used. I say used and not bought because I first ordered a printer from another brand and that one didnt even work, and was a pain to assemble and disassemble (several screws became stripped immediately). Still working out which settings are best for my specific printer, but it's working like a dream out of the box.
Interesting presentation and very non-condescending to beginner printers. As a Porsche factory race mechanic, I see unlimited application for this technology. We can use "printed" part designs in test environments before spending tens of thousands of USD on metal alloy forged parts (in gas volume testes and many others - etc.) so this was a most informative vid. Thanks to all involved.
The adhesion issue with the matte PLA might have been too much cooling as well, basically the filament gets cooled down before it has the chance to fuse with the previous layer completely. I assume you printed it again with the same exact settings so the type of PLA clearly matters but I think it should be possible to print the same thing with the cooling lowered down using the nice matte black PLA as well.
Just purchased one. Upgrades are all nice, but I think one of the biggest selling points for me is that it comes nearly assembled. I could certainly assemble one, but my time is worth spending a little extra $$$
The hot end is all metal with larger fins on heat sink. The hot end is definitely an upgrade. The silent board that can accommodate bl touch is also an upgrade over Ender 3 v1 and v1 pro.
Im thinkning about buying one to make action figures and medium statues. I was going with the Creality Ender 3 as my first 3d printer but someone say the Neo made some impressive updates. So i came here to see if it was better because they are going for $250 on amazon now. Thanks for video.
I had NO idea you had to level each corner! Thank you for this tip! I’m about to buy this one. Had a disaster with the Anycubic Kobra Neo so I’m excited for something a little new!
After at least of 1000 hours on my ender 3 v2 neo I can tell you this printer is worth every penny, but if you are new to the whole game make sure you read enough to understand issues that may occur and how to solve them as well as how to diagnose them! I am on facebook groups for different brands and models of 3d printers even top notch branded groups post tons of issues i see and i know how to solve them but yet my cheaper ender 3 v2 does the job because i went trough building my own printers back in the day when they were expensive..... what i am trying to say is that i see people buying creality printers for 500 bucks and having daily issues and they blame the printer but its not the printer its mostly their lack of knowledge..... although price is nearly something you would spend over night in pub..... comment if you need any help i would always help
I just now realized that due to the changed to the extrusions, many many Ender 3 v2 mods no longer work, for example the Kevinakasam belted z mod… I have ordered the parts already, but can’t use them without major design changes or swapping out the top 3 extrusions… I should’ve just gone for the v2 or s1 instead
Mine got a blob that ruined the thermistor wire so I replaced the hot end put while taking it out I saw a compositor is glued to the wire I needed to remove. The compositor fell off and now it’s sitting in a corner abandoned
Glad I come across this page, Ive wanted to get into 3d printing for a while but have always been put off by the tech, this as eased my mind some,,100% going give it a whirl
great video, but i have a question...after many research i still can't decide between the neo v2 or the s1 model... both seems good. what should i pick?
Great Video.... I just received the printer as a present. Once quick question about bed leveling. I am confused on which method to use. I seen a method that you have to first compress the spring all the way down. Does that matter. >? Also, I noticed that my bed is a little loose. Am i supposed to tighten those bolts. thank you
Hello, anyone know how to save the gcode in the micro sd to see on the screen the figure in the ender 3 v2 neo? It brings two gcode files on the sd that comes and they are seen but the ones I save are not seen
I have a problem. I can print the models that came in the sd card perfectly fine, but when i slice a model in cura it is slightly off centered when printing. any ideas on how to fix it?
Do you know what the probe xy offsets are? I installed mriscoc's professional firmware but forgot to write down the stock probe offsets. The current probe offsets work fine but I want to make sure they're the same as stock.
Strange issue with mine. I am not getting a layer around the part, I am getting this massive base layer. Any idea how to turn that massive base layer off?
Mostly it is about proper adhesion but worst case it can lead to a complete failed print. The larger the print or the more bed surface area the model takes up the more likely you will run into problems. Example, If you are printing .15mm layer heights and one side of the printer is .15mm or more higher than another side your layers will not adhere properly, and you end up with spaghetti.
@@ElevatedSystems Can't you just remove the bottom portion of the part you create? Won't the rest of it be ok? I'm thinking you could just build that into your model, the idea that the bottom portion will be sacrificial and removed after you create the part.
It's hideously slow stock, wow. Yeah it's consistent and it makes sure almost nothing fails, but if a first time user sees this kinda speed out of the box, it's not exactly a "wow" moment. It would have been nice if they optimised the settings a bit for the demo models
I find it hilarious that these incredibly precise machines have to constantly level the bed, the manufacturer can create the entire mind-boggling machine...but cant keep the bed flat.
The bed and print head by function continually heat and cool which causes expansion and contraction in the metal components. Leveling ensures the micro-millimeter tolerances required are maintained. Manufactures can't change the laws of physics.
Great video! I am a creator over on TikTok with 256,000+ and was wondering if you could share the contact for Creality? If not I totally understand, I would love the opportunity to work with them!
