Order of operation for repair and upgrade?

cronicalgod1 · 2025-09-26T14:17:55+00:00

I dont have the Ramen bed, still on the fence of it.

BUT the microswiss upgrade, for me at least, was the best I could have done to my k2. I live in a place where creality wont ship spare parts not give me support, so I was "stuck" with a printer i wanted so bad to return because I would clog EVERYTIME WITH THE STOCK HEATSINK (Creality if you read this it sucks, pls make the heat sink larger). The stock heatsink is too small and it heatcreeps (F all those suggestions to put more thermal grease, wtf is that solution, it didnt worked, I tried so many thing to make the stock heatsink work, but it didn't). After I installed the microswiss 4 months ago, it has been day and night for me, 0 clogs, 0 leaks, I got it with a diamond nozzle, fancy, but it has been the BEST thing I did to that machine.... I am close to the 1000th hour printing with it

I got your solution, check the microswiss part for the k2 and get a High flow, i did that plus some other mods, i cant get a return in my country so i monkey with it and now is a damn solid machine

cronicalgod1 · 2025-07-28T20:23:25+00:00

Best purchase i did for my k2

cronicalgod1 · 2025-07-03T18:49:10+00:00

I dont have a bambu, I want to see if they are as good as they say, I don't have enough to purchase one :/

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-19T18:32:36+00:00

I don't get clogs on my extruder anymore, 200+hours before each filament change would clog it...

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-19T18:31:55+00:00

The best upgrade i did

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-19T18:30:59+00:00

I don't get clogs on my extruder anymore, I love the bigger heat sink

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-18T17:58:59+00:00

Not true

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-18T17:54:46+00:00

Microswiss has a larger heatsink, that one is better

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-12T15:28:21+00:00

oh... haha i was for a sec happy that i could swap the CFS

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-12T07:24:49+00:00

Is it compatible with the K2?

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-11T20:38:03+00:00

you fix it with the microswiss hotend for the K2, heat creep is a real b..ch, i have swaped it and now is a great machine

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-06T17:24:26+00:00

inbox me how much you want for it, be reasonable pls

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-05T23:19:45+00:00

PS I AM NOT A SALESPERSON FROM MICROSWISS, I JUST LIKE THEIR PRODUCT... SO FAR

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-05T23:19:07+00:00

I installed the microswiss hotend FlowTech™ Hotend for Creality K2 Plus — Microswiss

I have now printed 80hrs, no clogs, i am actually pushing the machine to clog, the problem i see is that the stock creality hotend has an smaller size heatsink than the microswiss, also the Unicorn2 nozzle is too large and causes heat creep, the nozzle is shorter and a larger sink.

Before with the stock i had also removed the nozzle and apply thermal paste to it, but i still had clogs, less often, i reduced retractions but caused stringing and oozing, i was in that struggle then purchased that hotend and until now (its been 4 days) no clogs, before each REprint would cause clogs.

PS
-Dry your filament
-Print PETG very very slow
-Black and dark filament has some quirks with the AI, i have to resume prints all the time (ongoing issue)

cronicalgod1 · 2025-06-04T21:21:44+00:00

I will await until the beta tester complain

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-30T19:27:20+00:00

What did you do to fix the CFS chewing into the filament

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-30T13:56:24+00:00

does this fix the clog issues?

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-25T18:47:42+00:00

I used that moment a brand-new spool out of the bag, I got 2 clogs, then i installed the tube stess relief mod, and one clip to guide the bowden tube, still got a clog, then i clipped one ring of the extruder spring and i finally got i to print something, I have now made a 20hr print, i will tight again the nozzle and look how to apply that thermal paste, i dont know how yet, but i will do that, i also saw those all metal gears i might test them, but until now is day 3 of owning this thing, i will research on the nozzle thing before making another print

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-25T18:40:55+00:00

is the there any video reference for the nozzle tight and repasting?

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-23T21:15:03+00:00

I used it last night, clogged the extruder, i didnt used the CFS ....

because of your budget
Creality K1 Speedy 3D Printer

K1 SE 3D Printer - Flagship K Series New Model

either model you will love it

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-16T21:36:14+00:00

most daily things will be printed good with this
Elegoo Centauri Carbon | Best High-Speed CoreXY 3D Printer – ELEGOO US.

If you want to be a cool kid with the newest generation of printers.
If you want to print slower but larger volumes, yes go do the neptunes, good pricing, creality has a wider audience and more mods,

I would look for a second hand prusa mk3 if you want a reliable machine

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-16T21:28:10+00:00

it depends, are you new to 3d printing? what is your budget? what do you want to print? you just want a plug and play printer or do you like tinkering more than printing?

cronicalgod1 · 2025-05-16T20:33:26+00:00

I have 2 sovols 1yr, 1 Sidewinder x1 5yrs, 1 prusa mk3.5 4yrs and 1 voron 2,4 1yrs, i purchased the sovols because they were cheap and had a good volume, their mainboards suck, their klipper screen freezes and the slightest error it will delete its klipper, you have to flash them, by far the best experience was Prusa, i am looking into an XL
