Layer lines looked super gnarly 😮

Get yourself the Micro Swiss Hot End upgrade ASAP, that thing will save you so much hassle with clogs and filament issues. Its amazing how much that one thing improves the K1 Max.

You know that what everyone keeps telling me. I have all microswisses on my cr-10s and they fixed so many problems so likely will. Do they make an extruder gears or just hotend.

[@cylonmode]

@@boundlessperception1466 Just the hot end. An aftermarket extruder gear would be nice! But to be honest I've had no clogs after the hot end swap.

@@cylonmode Ill be ordering one today.

So I'm looking to buy my first printer. And am looking at K1, K1c and the max. Am I better off going for the K1 since it's so much cheaper and doing the Micro Swiss Hotend upgrade on it? Or is the K1C & Max worth the immediate purchase?

[@boundlessperception1466]

@Ratbiker48 I don't have any experience with the k1c but ny k1 max so far has already given me a jam. It was easy to clear but still annoying. I also recently got a qidi max 3 and though it's enormous would recommend it over the k1 max. It's also cheaper.

I'm using the P1S right now but strongly considering adding a K1 Max. I'm still watching your video as I type this comment so hopefully it'll help me make a decision.

[@_Mourning_]

Adding another comment to say that I also recently got Kingroon Filament, specifically Silk PLA but I cannot say that I had any issues with it at all. I've only run one print so far, and a section of the print failed, but that was my own fault for not adding support to that area.

[@boundlessperception1466]

@@_Mourning_ Thanks so much for checking out my video. I dunno what it was but my printer really didn't like it. JAYO was the way to go. And I may try silk PLA. Though I hear it eventually leads up to some big clog allegedly. Thats what that chat groups have been saying.

[@_Mourning_]

@@boundlessperception1466 might've been the temperature? I kept my P1S completely closed (glass on the top and front) and printed a full case without any issues other than the one I created myself which was the lack of one support, and even then, the rest of the print came out perfect. I just sliced off the part I needed and ran another print, and then glued the missing portion on LOL. Try adjusting the bed and hot end temps to whatever Kingroon says their filament needs. I'd also add, by default for me, I apply a small amount of adhesive to the textured plate. Even though I usually don't have adhesion issues, I don't like taking the risk, so I just add that extra security blanket for my own piece of mind.

@@_Mourning_ Interesting i run my with the lid off

[@_Mourning_]

@@boundlessperception1466 I've been wondering if I should run with the panels off for PLA to prevent warping but so far I've ran it fully enclosed for all my prints (all have been pla) and haven't had any issues that weren't my own fault tbh.

yeah kingroon is trash
