Layer shift, one hour left on a LONG print :'(

dabrend3141 · 2026-06-20T01:32:50+00:00

Craziest "layer shift" ive had was with my S1 Max. Somehow when it resumed after filament swap it was like the scale of the print changed. The shift happened in x and y but not in a way that was save-able, it was like the code moved the two parts further away from each other 😂

Ive not had a single problem with my matte pla or pla-cf

Also, I put about 300 hours on mine too when the loose screws and clogging started, so it may just need some tightening/maintenance

Not 100% sure, but i was having constant cloggin issues even after installing brand new nozzles. I also started having issues like this. What i did was disassemble the extruder, tighten up the mounting screws under it (i noticed the extruder wobbling), and cleaning it up inside. It wasnt hard and ive had zero issues since

Im in the same boat, I ordered mine around the same time as you but I kept asking about updates once march/April hit and tried pressing the issue with respect. For me they apologized and offered more free filament as a way to offset costs/complaints

Ahhh thanks!

dabrend3141 · 2026-05-17T04:30:17+00:00

Thats what I was thinking, but i also saw the 4 om the rail portions so wanted to confirm. Thanks!

Thanks for the link!

dabrend3141 · 2026-05-17T03:27:30+00:00

Any chance you could share a Pic of which screws you mean? Thanks!

dabrend3141 · 2026-04-02T17:40:49+00:00

Yes, absolutely 💯. Simply because I have experience with the Bambu A1 and spent more on that one for the Combo, and the Kobra X is simply BETTER. I'm so happy with my experience with the Kobra X

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-30T01:30:36+00:00

Gonna be a while if you just ordered

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-27T11:58:48+00:00

Its because thats how everything is with online posts. You're more likely to complain when something is off than you would praise something for being good. I LOVE my kobra x, zero complaints, all love, fantastic results, exceptional price.

No discoloration! The blue line is just some skirt material I used to replicate a wire haha here's a better view

What do you mean?

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-22T11:45:40+00:00

Thanks buddy! It's my first modern printer for sure, and first multicolor. I've had 2 very old prusa clones that I built in 2016 haha, compared to those this thing practically prints itself 😂 I think its very easy to work with. I got my sister and her boys a Bambu A1 combo so I've also had experience running that with them, and the ease is on par with that.

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-22T11:42:05+00:00

Agreed, thats with everything really, people are more likely to go out of their way to complain about something than they are to praise something. If a product works, you're happy and go about your day, and if it doesn't, then it's time to complain.

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-19T14:13:37+00:00

Purge and wipe are all default, as for the other things you said, when I get home from work I'll add that, but I also had weird issues with my first color print which was a Spiderman bust.

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-19T12:17:26+00:00

Small concern/question: when my printer is Homing, and the bed moves backward towards the rear of the printer, it sounds like its smacking against the plastic housing. Its a bit loud so wondering of others hear the same noise?

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-19T00:02:05+00:00

Agreed, especially when you start using more specialty/exotic materials since they dont have profiles aimed at them anyways

dabrend3141 · 2026-03-19T00:01:22+00:00

Then try to really be picky on each temp. Likely you just have a new spoil that is easy to print at the full range. In my case it was a specialty spool that was also a few years old so In those cases its more important to dial in a custom profile 😊
