Just Vlad how is the built in camera

[@dale4525]

I'm a cnc machinist and I'm pretty comfortable with gibbscam and autocad to a certain extent, but I'm brand new to 3d printing. I bought this printer and can't wait to get it. Your video was extremely helpful to me. I know this video is 4 y/o now lol but, thank you for going over the software and slicing process in such detail as well as the functions of the 3d printer. The explanation in this video is perfect for someone brand new to 3d printing. Great job, man

How has the printer been so far?

[@dale4525]

@@SickWheyfu Been awesome! Comes in handy with custom brackets and custom designs all the time

[@dale4525]

@SickWheyfu If you're interested in printers to buy. The flashforge adventurer 3 from the day I got it until now, prints pretty flawlessly. 100% recommend

[@SickWheyfu]

@@dale4525 Yup, I'm in the market for one. Looked at the Ender series and the SVO6 too, but since I found an used Flasforge Adventurer 3 for the same price as either of those, I'm going for it. From what I understand, it's pretty much plug and play. Just plug it in, feed the filament, and give it a file to print, pretty much.

[@phemark]

This is an amazing tutorial! I have just ordered Adventurer 3 Pro, and after seeing this, I'm more than ready to start using it. Thank you! :)

I'm all about printer friendly printers. I've dealt with a high end one with too many calibrations for bed leveling with paper and extruder issues...no joy! This seems to be the best choice for a beginner...like me.

[@steelwitness]

i got super lucky recently. a local store called the "Yard Sale" was selling an Adventurer 3 Lite for $200. They had looked up the Adventurer 3 on amazon and i guess they thought it was the Lite so they printed a screenshot of the amazon price and sold it with that. I went and bought it and when i got home and unboxed it i noticed the side of the printer said "Adventurer 3 V2". I also noticed it came with an extra build plate, 2 240c nozzles, and 1 265c nozzle. Turns out they didnt realize what they had and sold me a brand new 450 dollar printer for 200 lol

Hi Vlad, I got the Adventurer 3 up and running for a while now, but I cant seem to find a proper cleaning agent for the bed? There will ofcourse be residue when glue is used. I feel like 99,5 % alcohol or acetone is going to ruin the bed and its rubber-ish surface. What do you use? Thanks!

So I just got this printer and it's amazing. Works straight out of the box with minimal setup time. However I am having issues with the rafts - If I disable them the print moves from the plate every time, what did you do to prevent this? If I enable them the print works but then they are a nightmare to remove. Help appreciated.

It depends on how your temp of bed or nozzle is, you may need to leave the model to cool down a little.

[@TPA_JW]

Great video. Considering purchasing one of these after STRUGGLING to get an Ender 3 V2 to print correctly. I could not get ANYTHING to stick to bed. I did not see anything about you setting up the bed or leveling it. Do you need to do this step or is it built into the machine/software. Was setting the Z offset the only thing you needed to do? How did you do it later?

u dont need to move the nozzle or anything. for me i just loaded the filament and built the box and it was perfectly fine. i hope this helps

So looking to get my first 3D Printer. I am looking at the Monoprice MP Select Mini V2 or the Flash Forge Finder. Which would be the one you would choose based on the price, the Forge is about $120 more than the Mini.

I would chose Flashforge over Monoprice but if you want the best printer for your money i would recommend ender 3/pro, but thats just my opinion.

@@unclegamer6705 I understand. Unfortunately I have not had enough printers to suggest an out of the box ready best bang for your buck printer. The FF Finder is a good machine to start with so maybe that would be a good choice. The monoprice printer that i have is not on par as far as print quality is concerned to the finder. Also consider buying the printer from a store that you can easily do a return just incase its not what you were looking for. Hope this helps.

[@unclegamer6705]

@@JustVlads Not sure if you saw this, looks like Monoprice has the same printer as the Adventure 3, the Monoprice 135880 Voxel 3D Printer. The best part is it is only about $30 more than the Finder 3.... Think I might have found my first 3D printer.

December 31st 2019 at 5:45 p.m. here in New Milford Pennsylvania on route 29 I was involved and one of the most horrific car crashes at people I've ever seen in their life. I was hit head on at a combined speed of 125 mph at the scene of the crash which I don't remember much anymore I was told that I lost 80% of My blood and that basically during surgery I die twice on the operating table and was brought back I was in surgery for 13 and a half hours. I broke my tibia shattered my fibia and so many places completely destroyed my left arm and had to have rods pins and screws in both legs both knees and my left arm completely rebuilt from The joint to the hand. I spent about a month and a half in the hospital and then I went to physical rehab and I spent another week and then I spent another eight to nine months at home physical therapy. The pain that I went through was there's no words to describe it as whatsoever. I am currently disabled now because of the accident the guy that hit me and was his fault and , unfortunately it would do the Pennsylvania law that if you don't have a certain amount of money you can't collect so my settlement not much at all. I was told that would never walk again or do this and do that and I refuse to accept that I do walk I do drive but I'm at 70% of my life the rest of my whole life I'll be 70%. Meaning that I will not be able to run or do physical meaningful activities like I used to. Before that in 2012 my fiance killed herself on October 15th my other dog passed away on December 15th 2012 my mom had a stroke on December 25th 2012 and died January 27th 2013 and then two years later I lost two more people two more relatives two best friends and so on and so on and then my uncle and my aunt passed away and then I had the horrific accident that changed my life. So I never get anything for Christmas so it would be a miracle to get something for Christmas for lunch it never will happen but it would be a miracle Curtis Bynon 87 Cobb street new Milford PA,18834 [e-mail]
