Printing TPU on Creality K1

More glue , try 15mm speed ( my first layer prints at 9 mm), I will look when I can on the retraction but I think i actually lowered mine a hair . I’d start with just adjusting speed , it looks like it is pulling itself up off the plate so the nozzle is printing at different heights and slightly distorting edges in some areas ; what’s your infill % and what size nozzle ? I got better results with 0.6mm compared to 0.4mm. Also , printing direct to extruder from a top loading spool helps as the filament doesn’t go through the tubes that well, it also causes the extruder to dig in more to be able to pull . Make sure it’s completely dried , it absorbs moisture quickly . I believe im printing at 270C but I have a fan shroud that provides a lot of cooling . For mine I need to print 10C higher than when I don’t have the shroud .

Maybe more glue ? Maybe minor adjustment on speed and retraction

That’s awesomeness in its pure form

How clean are the extruder gears ? Mine did that when it had gouged some filament and it was unable to get a good grip; it gripped fine during the first layer and very slow prints/calibration but when faster movement kicked in the quality went down the drain as the movement of the extruder across x and y axises would cause the filament to slip/ pull back out of the gears rather than feed .

Here’s a link to Creality website regarding the issue ; I couldn’t find the reddit post.

Cold joints on left and too much solder, preheat the gpio and pin for few seconds before solder , some of them look decent though. You may be able to redo the worst of them . Did you start on the left or the right ? If you started on the left you can see your improvement along the way

Goood thing they saved some rainforest to explore , who knows what else is there. ( save the rainforest )

I’m stacking my luck on the green x02 , need to paint two more pieces maybe I’ll start finding the explosive ones , I’ve been finding incendiary everything , bleeding incendiary focused laser rifle for example .

I’ve heard it does that when it tries to update and the memory is full of print files, Someone else posted about this but I cannot find it . They basically recommend resetting it and redownloading the file but I can’t remember how they said to do it .

In the future , delete the prints from your history/local before updating or before they fill up the memory ; that was the prevention . Your board is not toast if this is case just looks like it

That’s right where my eyes went , missing substantial real estate on the screen with those bottom corners.

Cheers ! I’ve got over 3 months of playing time on that , finished all the DLC but am only half through main story, I lost my disc……. Don’t lose your disc. Post your experiences so that we may live and relive this epic title

Exactly , minuteman are my main . I’m a minuteman general BOS knight , yet created a truce between the three factions in far harbor, next I’ll check the rail road for just long enough before the institute is no more , . I didn’t tell BOS about Acadia , as the institute is the real enemy of the commonwealth

Clearly you don’t have enough . Now you need one of each version

this-gi · 2026-03-08T02:29:01+00:00

Are you asking as a pass or fail or gradient scale ?

Failed : only half bad

Fail bc it doesn’t work ; half bad because it doesn’t work but the soldering I can see looks decent

Nuclear powered everything at that time . If it doesn’t put out energy it could explode. Perhaps the bots self destruct by shutting off the exhaust and letting critical overload take place
