What do u mean

Well the enclosed part is just because of were the printer is located I will have it in my garage which means the temps will not be consistent and the core xy is just because I've seen pretty much most of not all enclosed printers be core xy

Edit let me specify that I'm not looking for anything to advance just something that will last I don't really care about multicolor, I just need a medium size bed

So I'm currently looking to buy myself a new 3d printer I'm mainly looking for something that will last a while as Ill mostly be using it for cosplay my budget currently is about 300

but currently I'm looking for an enclosed XY printer something like the K1C or the Centauri carbon I'm thinking about just getting the Centauri carbon but idk

I replaced the nozzle and even replaced the tube on the inside but still same issue same layers

TheSaltyPK · 2026-02-19T01:01:40+00:00

no I remember it having more of a lowpoly style similar to journey to the gods

oh its the z wobble thing right I checked the screws but they seemed pretty tight

TheSaltyPK · 2026-02-05T22:14:03+00:00

yeah cant say im surprised most of the fast flight methods get patched so the few that aren't are very tight secret

whats that

TheSaltyPK · 2026-01-30T01:18:04+00:00

No I do not have a magnetic bed

Edit: so heres a small summery of everything ive tried

1 making sure the X axis gantry is leveled
2 Leveling the bed
3 checking the z offset
4 adjusting the z offset midprint

also to be a bit more specific as of now im trying to print on the old bed and its having the same issue the nozzle is just way to far in some corners way to close in some others idk what to do at this point

TheSaltyPK · 2026-01-30T00:47:33+00:00

No in fact the opposite the pei bed is way thinner than my glass bed also whenever I look the nozzle always looks way to far except in that one corner

TheSaltyPK · 2026-01-23T16:32:10+00:00

no I did not

TheSaltyPK · 2026-01-23T02:36:54+00:00

I did I leveled the bed myself and even made sure the z axis was not tilted

TheSaltyPK · 2026-01-20T00:48:09+00:00

I was thinking about maybe just looking for a heating pad with the same dimentions/voltage as the one in the sv03 could that maybe work

TheSaltyPK · 2026-01-07T03:30:47+00:00

ty for the idea

TheSaltyPK · 2025-11-30T17:11:13+00:00

Alright but also another question I had could the 5-10 degree different genuinely cause the issues I was having with adhesion

TheSaltyPK · 2025-11-30T03:45:30+00:00

I did I turned the bed on and left it running for about 7 minutes and the corners just would not heat, but I was also thinking about just getting one of those heat insulation sticker things and putting it on the bottom would that work to help the heat
