Did you get the footing issue resolved? (Stuff fusing together)... Not really worth $500 if you're constantly fusing pieces together

[@JustVlads]

Yes, as someone suggested to flip the anti backlash spring around fixed the issue and prints perfect now.

Hi just vlad! Following u for a long time since like 2020 n I like watched almost every video of yours since then. Please guide me I want to buy a 3D printer for myself this time so pls gimme some advice, I always get confused which printer should I buy resin printer or a filament printer. Pls help me you would do me a huge favour

[@samk8076]

@@JustVlads What is the backlash? can you please explain where is this spring exactly please?

[@everhardknol]

Hello Vlad. My new ender 5 s1 had the same problem. However, it is not necessary to turn the nut. The problem is caused by the spring being mounted too tight. If you turn the top nut up 1 turn, the problem is solved. Turn the platter up by hand until the top nut comes loose, then turn the platter down 1 turn and then reattach the nut. If you put the nuts under the platform, the platform will lower automatically when the Z motor is switched off, the nuts plus spring in the original position prevent this.

[@pandrews01]

I watched your video on the Ender 3 S1 assembly. I really enjoy your other assembly and review videos. Fantastic. No BS, no fluff, just straight to up "solid." Thank-you.

[@InterestedLlama]

Same 'first few layers issue' here! Took me forever to identify the cause & fix it. Flipping the anti-backlash nut didn't do anything for me; there's another problem causing the same issue: Mine had unwanted fibrous residue from the packaging material stuck inside of the Z-Axis linear bearings. If you listen carefully, you'll likely hear a crunching noise coming from those bearings and when you roll around the very top of the Z-Axis you'll find a spot where there is way more friction than anywhere else along the rails. To get it out, I lubricated the Z-Axis linear rails, slid the bearings (and print bed) up and down a dozen or so times, rinsed with alcohol and repeated the steps another 3 times. After the final lubrication, and my initial layers are printing perfectly! Hope this works for you

[@JoshUC]

Great videos as usual every time I see your videos I remember the first time I assembled my printer(Ender 3 pro) more than 3 years ago, watching your videos. Regards from Costa Rica!

[@flunkium]

thanks bro. my first prints were perfect because of your video. The boxed documentation was not great. You saved me grief and time. :)

Just got my Ender 5 S1 and same thing with that early layer... everything has printed perfectly otherwise. loving this printer so far. Coming from a pretty old highly modified ender 3 and honestly its nice to move into the modern era.

I have the exact same problem with the wierdness on layers 2 to 10 , tried fan on/off from start , different quality, flipped antibacklash nut - nothing resolves it ?

[@AKZMOXY]

thanks for the video just finish setting up my printer using ur video as reference everything went great.

[@bobbywhitney6262]

Great video and great instruction putting the unit together. Well I have received my Ender 5 S1 and printing the test prints and I didn't get this "phenomon" when printing. I only having issues at first slicing from Cura 5.1.2. So I did install the Creality Slicer and my prints are printing very well. But I am going to continue to play around with the Cura settings so that I can 3D print from Cura.

[@PrizzaMike]

Thanks! This video helped me alot! 🔥

[@OliverRivettCarnac]

Thanks so much for the awesome video, I just got mine and have yet to set it up. I am hoping that I don't run into that same weird issue, although I see many comments with possible solutions. I am entirely new to 3D printing but really keen to finally get onto the bandwagon. Got loads of practical things I want to do and it should come in real handy.

[@mxracingunlimitedltd7784]

How'd it work out for you with the Ender 5 S1? Im looking at getting one..

[@velcrodreams178]

Great review!

[@holgerst3607]

always nice videos

[@saosing04]

Would this be a better choice over the Ender 3 s1 Plus or Pro?

[@notchipotle]

what I hate about creality is that they always overtighten some screws and the screw quality is really bad and soft compared to other brand, even smaller brand like kingroon, so just be careful

[@notchipotle]

I have the same problem on one of my S1 pro, I have to realign everything to get it fixed

[@biqquette]

Im actually working in a factory on cnc machine, and the setting up, looks kinda familiar. Thx very much

[@notarat]

Vlad...I'm experiencing the same issue on my E5S1 with the odd banding near the bottom of the model as well as having to change the Z offset compensation like you did. Were you able to identify the cause?

[@PowerInverter110]

I have the same printer and issues regarding the Z height problem. I flipped the anti-backlash nut, and that solved the issue. Mine shipped with the spring pointing up. Perhaps as the bed is going to start printing, the spring is under more tension as it is being pushed up. When initially printing that tension could be changing until it moves far enough down. I dont know... It is working for me... Also, I found my Z height was roughly 19.7 for the cubes, and now its dead on.

[@JustVlads]

Thanks for the tip! It fixed the problem.

[@TinderSwindler_]

I am new to this and have the ender 5 s1, do you mind pointing me in the direction of where I might find this elusive anti-backlash nut? Thanks!

[@PowerInverter110]

@@TinderSwindler_ Its the part that is connected to the threaded rod. The rod spins and moves the bed up and down. Attached to the bed is a spring and nut. I removed the threaded rod completely, and removed the 2 screws that hold the spring and nut to the bed. I then installed everything back together, except put the nut and spring on the bottom of the bed. Hope that help. Good Luck

I had the same problem with my review unit. The first level is bad. I have updated the firmware and see no change

Hello, Vlad! First of all, i want to say thanks for this huge work you do for your viewers! I really appreciate how much effort u put into it:) My question is which printer i should buy as a beginner (want to use it for work) - Creality Ender-5 S1 or Creality CR-10 Smart Pro? Both look very good.

[@Lochlany]

Ender-5 S1

[@matiasvignati5598]

i dont know, but meaby you could try to print a cube with 55ºC on the bed for the first layer, and 50ºC for the rest. Really good review and really like the footage

having trouble with bed leveling. I start the process and the bed goes up and then it seems too much as it just vibrating at the print head any ideas?

[@bartdelege929]

For your problem on thé bottom, it's gotta be something with thé initial layer, temperature, cooling, flow and maybe initial speed, also try to decrease bed temp, because you had a little bit of elephants foot, great vid!!

[@richfpv472]

Elephants foot has nothing to do with temperature

What is the point going down to get Z home? There is a CR Touch for Z homing, why not use that? With this homing method, it is slow and not easy to replace sheets with different thickness. Probably there is a reason, but I don't know what.

[@Deluxa801]

Hotend assembly is basically a bad cloned copy of EVA carriage platform which is already here some Friday. There is nothing unique about it. Another thing that amazes me is how Creality still can't solve and organize the xy cables. 2 cheap plastic cable chain solve this. It's absurd to have it in 2022 like this because you're asking for a later problems. Bed assembly is really bad nothing has changed. I honestly don't know who is the target group for that printer, expected something better compared to the old 5 series models....your video editing is getting better every day. Keep it up...

[@cgwworldministries83]

Kind of annoyed they went with v-slot rollers instead of linear rails for a 2022 printer and STILL a cantilever bed. The motors are still 80 step instead of 160 step motors. Time and time again Creality shows that they only care about quantity over quality. What a piss poor job for a 2022 printer. A lot of ghosting can be easily solved with LDO motors.
