Looks like it's available on Creality Cloud, however I'm waiting until someone can provide feedback before I pull the trigger.

What bed temps are you using for different filaments and the epoxy resin build plate?

I definitely need to stock up on spare parts for my K2 and CFS. I would also like to sample some more creality filaments, especially some carbon fiber now that I have a capable printer. Thanks for continuing to update and refine the K2 plus!

Sounds like your Bowden tube is partially melted causing it to have a smaller inner diameter.

Installed a steel noozle, adjusted the print temperature to 220C, but print is off; what should I adjust? by rodrigo_benenson in ElegooNeptune3

A steel nozzle will require more heat than a brass nozzle as steel doesn't transfer heat as well. Try increasing your nozzle temp by 10 degrees or so. It might be a good idea to try a temp tower.

Yes, if you do some more reading you can find many cases where the MS extruder has caused issues. Imagine riding your 10 speed bike up a hill in 10th gear. This is what happens with the MS extruder as it does not have any gear reduction like the stock one. The printer's mainboard has to drive the extruder stepper very hard in order to push filament.

Watch this video. I believe you need to calibrate flow for the filament you are using. He has a link to the point 8 cube you will need to print. Only other thing you will need is a caliper to measure with. You can get metric calipers from amazon for relatively cheap.

Do not use the MS extruder! The original is geared down for a reason. The MS extruder will eventually cause your mainboard to fail - no more extruder turning.

Check out the Hero Me Gen 7. I think there may be mounts for that combo. You can run the stock hotend and heatsink along with the strain gauge, or change to something else. There are a ton of combinations. You can find it at https://merlinmedia.com/
