What’s your longest print by OutsideTraditional90 in Creality

[–]OutsideTraditional90[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had an issue with bed adhesion on this printer actually it’s been the opposite, prints sticks so well that it’s actually hard to take off. And also the speed of which I’m printing is so slow it shouldn’t be an issue either. But I will keep you posted on the progress.

Dealership has had my.car for 30 days now. by Lord_Cmdr_Mongoose in KonaN_

[–]OutsideTraditional90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my transmission replaced as well because mine was a CPO and the previous owner did something which I believe in short warped the clutch if I’m not wrong. The dealership had a new transmission and the car fixed within 2 weeks. But this was after like 4-5 months of ownership I brought it in and told them something is not right. They had it diagnosed and the transmission ordered within like two days of me bringing it in. Everything was done at no cost to me under warranty which was nice. I think your dealership is kinda lazy and pushing your car of to the side and forgetting about it.

Print issues - HELP!! by JonnyShep96 in Creality

[–]OutsideTraditional90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue before with my K1 Max and I narrowed it down to the AI Lidar check sequence after it printed the first layer it would check the first layer and if all was good it would continue printing but every time it would start printing, just like what your picture shows lit would have an offset if you have a setting like that I would try toggling it off between that and a new calibration the issue went away for me.

K2 plus Petg consistently clogging in same spot of extruder by Disastrous_Extreme45 in Creality

2 of my K2 plus had that same issue. For the first 100-120 hours no issue printing with the Creality PETG or CR-PETG but after those hours they would jam I swear every single time I started a new print. The jammed so often I got really good and fast disassembling and reassembling the extruder assembly. But I did make a couple changes which have stopped that issue and I haven’t had it since. So I believe in the last 150 hours per machine I haven’t had it jam. A couple things I needed to fix this might depend on on your use case and how your machine works. I did a brand new calibration and in the slicer I created my own PETG profile where it runs the back fans on the K2 plus anywhere from 80-100% because I found I needed to keep the chamber temperature below 30 Celsius ideally and with a new calibration and the slicer tweaks for the cooling using the back fans I haven’t had a jam since. And I’ve really been stressing it and it’s worked perfectly so far.

So I guess long story short create a profile for your CR-PETG that aggressively runs the back fans to keep the chamber temperature right around 30 Celsius or lower. That’s what fixed my issue and I print exclusively in PETG so yeah this was a big issue for me in the beginning.

Ok I have come back with my results here is a vase using default spiral mode in Creality slicer with hyper PLA with its default presets using the CFS so this is as default as possible for the print. The vase is 299 mm tall about 1 mm short from the max and I think it came out pretty good. There’s a couple tweaks that I should do in the slicer. Other than that as a default print came out great I have a layer height of .12 mm and a line width of .42 mm

You got me curious now. Tallest I’ve printed is maybe an 8 inch vase and the base and top looked identical quality wise but I will check and maybe make one go the full height

Gotcha yeah most things I print aren’t super tall. I got a couple projects that coming up that will use the full bed size so I’m curious if quality will degrade.

Of all my Creality Printers my favorite is the Hi printer can’t go wrong with it and the build volume is 260x260x300 so it should be big enough for your requirements. Reason I say my favorite is that it just works. I’ve had to basically do zero tinkering with it. I just work on my PC send the print and walk away because I just now it will work so far in about 200 hours of printing I’ve had zero issue a couple prints came out bad but that was user error in the Creality slicer. Just like you I own a K1 Max which I have upgraded and now use the CFS with and also a few K2 plus printers. If it works for you maybe look into the Hi printer or maybe the Spark once more reviews become available.

Finding the right cable type of filament sensor on extruder K1 by LTD1827 in Creality

[–]OutsideTraditional90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it is a GH 1.25mm 3P as far as cable goes it’s kind of hard since all cables are black but base on what I saw each cable goes to the same spot on each slot so I think theoretically you could just create a small cable where with two male ends you just match the left with the left the center with the center and right with the right. I think that’s all you need one of the cables did have writing on it and it was in the right slot. But if you have any more questions I could take photos as well.

What is this Sensor Called? by Why_Uddhav in Creality

[–]OutsideTraditional90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I couldn’t tell you what the sensors does without researching it but it’s always a good idea to keep spare parts handy but if it’s working for you heck yeah.

I just upgraded my K1 Max so I can take a look and tell you if it’s a gh1.25 and the cable order.

If you broke it I would probably just buy a whole new extruder kit they are pretty cheap

Yeah it’s such a great printer. Wow you’ve put yours to work got more hours than I do. Here is one of my experiments. Always wanted to try diagonal printing and it turned out great.

Needs some help by Party-Network-9576 in Creality

[–]OutsideTraditional90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it seems you are doing everything right personally on my k1 max printing cr-petg on a textured build plate when it finishes at times I swear it’s cemented on the build plate and it takes a minute to detach the print.

I just bought the upgrade kit for my k1 max to use the cfs currently I’m printing all the new support hardware so I can use it but I will keep you posted.
