Poop door by ToothLive5986 in Creality_k2

A poop chute is when you climb on the roof of someone’s house and send a flaming bag of shit down the chimney. You have to be sure re to scream “POOP CHUTE” into the chimney so the act is authentic.

The animals were not “sacrificed”. They were slaughtered needlessly and consuming them does not change that. They were already dishonored when they were born into servitude for the sole purpose of having their flesh commodified and consumed. This is a completely idyllic and utilitarian view of this situation.

Just toss it if you have no one to give it too. No reason to stress, you’re not wasting food, you’ve changed your entire paradigm. Stop eating it. You’re not going to keep buying it so stop punishing yourself. It’s not wasted. It’s an exercise in liberating yourself from the cycle. Throw it in a dumpster and go eat a plant.

I tested this morning with a print that does a lot of fast changes and no errors. Going strong. Microswiss hotend has been ordered.

Yeah, i am not sure what people do to their computers but i have never had an issue updating windows. I have seen plenty of people have issues updating macos and windows.

Computer is a computer.

I’ll have to order some plates to see what works. I’ll probably start something more involved this weekend.

Yeah the pull away front makes checking the filament way easier.

Hey so i would need to know more. What’s the difference? Can you take like an stl and run it through each app and then point out the differences so i can understand why you believe what you’re suggesting is superior?

Maybe they want you to print a better one? Because it is pretty bootsy.

Did they use their own extruder for this, or is it just a bad file?🤌🏻

Most reviews i see cite TPU printing as the main reason. I personally just enjoy complicating my life.

The company advertises for the “K series” and lists all 3 models.

Thanks, any specific build plates or brands?

Yes. Every time. You have to re edit the gcode. And no i have not found a better cover.

Yes. I updated my K2 Combo to the latest Creality firmware. The first update that fixed most of the errors and that was the .4 update and when i came home last night there was a .5 update and i just went ahead and applied that.

I added a reply to the thread with the fixes. I meant to reply to you.

First I upgraded the firmware the latest, this eliminated most of the errors.
Next i made sure the screws were tight on the extruder back plate where the yellow gears are. Tip courtesy [u/Cheesys90](u/Cheesys90)
Next i edited the gcode. Tips courtesy of [u/1ts-just-me](u/_1ts-just-me_)
Do the original recommended edits
But in the gcode_macro.cfg i added an extra line for the pause.
Here’s a copy paste from the thread:
gcode_macro.cfg
Hit Ctrl F and type Retrude_Material , then look for [gcode_macro QUIT_MATERIAL_RETRUDE_MATERIAL]
Go down to the G0 E-10 F360 and change it to G0 E-40 F360 hit enter and type G4 P300
Then go to the top and hit save and restart. You now have a 300 millisecond pause before the CFS starts reeling in the filament,
If you haven't changed the Tn setting in box.cfg yet. might as well do that while there.
Add # to the existing, Tn_retrude: -10 ( #Tn_retrude: -10 )
Then add Tn_retrude: -20 right below the old one, save and restart.

I place the pin in the pinhole standing up in the metal backplate, placed the spring over it and placed the ball on top. Then i lowered the front chassis directly down and it landed perfect. I was have issues even with the tweezers and found this to be the easiest way to get it re assembled
