I’ve had many printers work straight out of the box. Sucks you’re having so much grief. I’m especially interested in hearing about your SV08 and Kobra 2 Max pains

Happy new year and please don't give up. It feels to me like your printers are causing you too much trouble to be worth using. Perhaps sell most of them off and buy more reliable brands? Bambu Lab printers are expensive but they are extremely reliable. Same thing with Prusa printers. Give them a shot. Also, as I've learned twice to my detriment, product reviews mean nothing, especially for those printers that come from China. I have a sneaking suspicion that the review copies that most creators receive have been carefully curated beforehand, while we normal folk have to deal with the real output of manufacturing defects. Everyone was raving about the Qidi X-Max 3 but I've had nothing but trouble with it, same as with the Elegoo neptune 4 series. I've spent MONTHS tinkering with them along with that tech support until I found all the defects and fixed them. Avoid these manufacturers at all costs.

Happy new year! Keep the faith. We all struggle keeping our printers going. I suppose that’s part of the hobby! Your videos help me solve printer issues and I appreciate your work!

Hi what settings you are actually using after test and all prusa or orca ?

I'm kind of curious how many hours you have on some of these printers. Especially the older ones. While I appreciate your videos on how to fix things, I'm sorry the problems are hitting you so hard.

New year is just another day nothing special about it bro !!! Live a good life every day God bless

I know nothing about 3d printing my 12 yo got it for xmas and he swears its broken now he only used it like 10×.. soo when we auto level and try to print it doesnt stick and blobs up the z ofset says -2.51 can anyone help a dumb mom

Just assembled my sv08. Only issue with it was one of the connector holes of the stepper dupont connector was clogged with glue, causing a bad connection to the stepper motor and forcing a pin to bend on the Z3 and Y stepper motors. Its not a top notch quality build, so some experience is helpfull, but it does deliver. Had none of the other problems reviewers complain(ed) about. Maybe I'm just lucky...

My z axes won’t move for some reason

With twice as many sensors and motors the K2 will be a nightmare for any user to assess and fix, for the price tag it should have far better warranty and servicing options.

I adjusted my z height during a print. It fixed it temporarily but unfortunately a couple hours later, it started up again. This is because the issue isn’t the z height. The real issue is over extrusion on the infill. Charge to Gyroid infill and it should fix the issue. As for the nozzle dragging on supports, you’ll probably have to adjust the extrusion settings

Thank YOU for that 🎉

Does the heat generated by the printers keep the tent warm enough in the cold or do you have a heater in the tent? Thank you

I am 72 young I just got the max one omg I love it only doing little items but so cool ❤ thanks for the video

Hey man, I just wanna say thank you for sharing the results of your patient endurance. I'm at the end of my first week honeymoon with a N4Pro and it's stuff like this that helps

Very curious whether you live in a cold area and if your garage insulted/heated? How do you handle printing in cold temperatures, thank you. Great channel!

Literally had the same exact issue. Sucks

You was a big help with this😊 🎉

hey man I have the same 3d printer and my bed moves and jerks non the printer but the bed

GLX Printer ? Can you tell more of them ? 🙏🏻

Sry for my stupid Question ... my english is not the yellow from the egg ( 30yo never used German school english 😂 ) ... Did i hear right and you told not to buy any of them and better buy another brand ??? Which brand you recommended ? Sry i am not able to hear it 😢😂 Is there a best buy in your opinion ? 🙏🏻🍀

Wasn't you complaining about them not working before 🤔

after the ender 3 pro... Yeah I'll try out corexy 💀 you talked me out of those two printers

Do you always use a brim on articulated dragons?

did you have to adjust the rails so that they are spaced correctly from front to back? i seen some people measuring between the rails because they weren't spaced right

I was having issues with my printer but changing the settings in cura like you said worked like a charm! I can finally use my printer I just bought

Might go ahead and replace the cable with thicker silicon cable before mine possibly melts.

Functional Print Friday has a great video regarding the bed on this printer, if you haven't seen it.

i have the chiron and the max and i found that bothj vibrate its just the pure size of them both iv printed some tpu feet and thats made 100% diffrance on bothe the chiron and the max, iv also converted both to direct drive aswell, great video by the way

Love those time lapses.

How many hours on the K2 plus did that take. Mine sliced out at 1day and 17 hours on my 350 Voron.

Absolutely beautiful!

First comment...that's awesome. 😊

I set my z offset and run dozens of parts without watching anything haha I hit start and walk away until I come back to start another.

Im replacing the hotend on mine already ! Yay

I BOUGHT THE SAME PRINTER AS MY FIRST PRINTER LAST WEEK, INSTRUCTIONS ARE VERY VERY BARE, SURE NO PROBLEMS PUTTING IT TOGETHER, BUT HOW TO OPERATE IT I HAD TO GO ONLINE. IT WORKED REALLY WELL FOR ABOUT 40 HOURS OR SO UNTIL I GOT THE SAME PROBLEM AS YOUR VIDEO. I BOUGHT MY PRINTER VIA FACEBOOK NEW IN THE BOX AND CAME WITH SPARES, SO I HAD A SPARE HEAD, CAME WITH NOZZLES SO I TRIED TO FIT A NEW NOZZLE, AND MORE PROBLEMS, THE SPARE NOZZLES ARE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT AS HOW IT SEAT INTO THE HEATING ELEMENT, I TOOK THE EASY WAY OUT AND GOT A FILE AND REMOVED A SMALL ABOUT OF COPPER, RE CALIBRATED THE PRINTER AND SEEMS TO BE WORKING AGAIN. THAT BLUE TUBE IS A VERY VERY POOR DESIGN, SO I GOT ONLINE AND FOUND AN UPGRADED HEATING ELEMENT FROM ALIEXPRESS THAT HAS A METAL TUBE, NO MORE BLUE TUBE, AND WILL FIT IT WHEN IT COMES IN THE MAIL AS I CAN SEE THAT BLUE PLASTIC TUBE MELTING IN TIME AGAIN. OVERALL IT IS NOT A BAD PRINTER, BUT FROM AN ENGINEERING POINT OF VIEW I THINK THEY CHEAPED OUT ON SOME PARTS, ONE OF THE 4 SMALL SCREWS THAT HOLD THE HEAD ONTO THE PRINTER STRIPPED THE TREAD ALREADY, AND THEIR HEATING ELEMENT IS POORLY DESIGNED, IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS SO FAST SEEING THE PRINTER IS BRAND NEW. BUT I THINK THE UPGRADED PART SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. AND THOSE ALLEN KEYS THAT CAME WITH THE PRINTER ARE JUNK, APPLY SOME FORCE AND THEY ROUND OFF. I ALSO HAVE HAD SOME OF THE BRIM LIFTING AT TIMES, SO BOUGHT SOME BED ADHESIVE AS WELL TO AID WITH THAT PROBLEM.

So you always print without the fan?

Appreciated your video and subscribed! These upgrades and maintenance reminded me of my very first Ender 3 which wasn’t good until you replaced the entire control board, upgraded the springs, added cable chains, and updated the firmware. These kids today! (This was in 2019 lol, hardly the days of old but still)

I think anyone expecting it to work like a Dishwasher are (putting this kindly) not using their heads. I’m loving my K2 Plus so far, it’s by far the best printer I’ve had yet. It’s absolutely a printer, not a magic zero-effort box of perfection.

Can you use silicone spacers with knobs under the bed to dial in the bed on the K2 Plus like what we do on the K1 Max?

Thank you for being honest about it. I don't like all the great reviews like nothing is ever wrong.

Thanks for the info- I got mine fixed by- 1 switching off Combing, 2 increase Z-hop to 0.4mm, 3 decreasing the flow. I found I had to decrease my flow by a whopping 25%. I set it to 75% flow and it is now flawless with no dragging.

Bummer! I have had only one failed print - and I kinda blame myself for doing .1 layers with the stock nozzle

I was going to add to farm but reconsidering now

"don't let people blow smoke up your ass" is the best quote of today I have heard bud. I feel exactly the same about my SV08..i have 4 built vorons I don't know why i got it. Anywhoo i would imagine the K2 is way better than the SV08 though.

All printers seem to inherently have the same problems

How’s the heated chamber compared to xmax 3? I know you mostly print PLA, but just curious how the prints are compared to xmax 3

Good video. Very informative. Was thinking about getting it but still on the fence.

What about the flow rate
