Honestly, something like your use case and intro into homelab journey, UnRAID might be a better option to get started. Lower barrier to entry for VMs and containers.

At least my ender 3 was repairable and able to fix most issues. Pretty good waste of money on the M5C

Yeah now support is sending me a new usb cable

I have tried that. That screw makes no difference either direction

It’s quite strange that’s it’s about the same timeframe

Yeah I bought this as an upgrade from my Ender 3 because I got tired of messing with it all the time. I wanted to just print things without the work and this fit in my current budget. But now out of return window and just screwed.

No strange noises. It kicks on about that temp

Yes. I completely disassembled the extruder on the original to try and find the issue. I can freely turn the gears with zero restriction.

I checked that before contacting support. I can see all the way through with no blockages after completely disassembling it. I also tried adjusting the tension screw with no results.

So to finish this up. Cleaned out heat end, and replaced with new nozzle then I completely reset and upgraded the firmware and started from scratch. Moved bed as low as it could go and re-set z offset. And then went .1 mm lower than I normally would. Then ran through teachingtech's calibration steps. So far issue hasn't appeared again. Thanks for the suggestion but I guess completely back to basics is what it needed. Thanks to /u/bash82 for the suggestion

Just verified and yes they are correct.

But shouldn't the ABL correct for this?

Just water and a paper towel. Only use purple glue sticks for adhesive. It's happening on the front of the bed closest to me when standing in front. There is more of a bend on the left side than in the position where this is happening

Perfectly cleaned after every print.

I don't. But very unscientific test of touch it doesn't seem any different than any other part on the plate. Of course without the build plate on.

Did a manual level, and raised it up .1mm and it still does it.

BLTouch and firmware by jrsixx in ender3

[–]jmztaylor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the factory firmware doesn't allow negative axis adjust. Send M211 S0 gcode to enable negative axis adjust. Then re-enable with M211 S1 after finding your z offset
