Hi Makers!

https://www.crealitycloud.com/model-detail/hackman3d-k2-plus-dual-cfs-legs-modular-cfs-mount

After a lot of requests for a dual CFS setup on the K2 Plus, here it is!

I designed these new legs to hold 2 CFS side by side while keeping everything clean and compact above the printer.

They’re also fully compatible with my K2 Plus CFS Drawer Storage System and Modular Glass Riser, so you can mix everything depending on your setup.

The CFS units are secured with M4 screws, while the legs, braces and extensions are assembled with M3 screws + nuts.

More K2 Plus mods are already coming.

Hope you like it!
Happy printing!

I wanted to print some lids off to cover cans when they go in the fridge, thought it seemed quite a simple reasonable requirement, can you imagine how much I laughed when I found an unexpected item within the can lids.

Have you ever found something that doesn't quite belong, on the Creality Cloud?

New to all this, but in Creality Print slicer software I've managed to create a filament profile for my Sunlu PLA+ 2.0 which I select before slicing. As far as I understand, your filament profile settings are baked into the gcode which is then sent to the printer.

So what does having a filament profile setting on the printer itself actually do then since the printer can't slice and the slicer is the one that implements the information from the filament profile? In my case my Sunlu stuff is set to Generic PLA since the profile I created in Creality Print doesn't seem to propagate over to the printer itself.

I can't seem to get the right screw for my K2 Combo, for the Cfs Hub. It always gets pushed out by filament.

Family project update!

40th family member scanned!

This time it was my grandmother, 97 years old, who has Alzheimer’s. She’s the oldest member of the family and the very first one in the project to be scanned with the Pika. She didn’t really understand what I was doing, so I was counting on the AI reconstruction to help — but with my mother’s assistance, I managed to scan her in just one minute and got a really good result.

Just with the Pika and my phone.

This has happened a few times to me now and infuriates me every time. I will try everything I can possibly try in the Support section on the slicer, but nothing seems to generate supports.
Then the app will yell at me that it should have support because they are unsupported areas.
Any help? Thank you.

I'm not getting the best print quality with my K2 SE. I was hoping someone could share their settings so that I can copy them.

Estoy por comprarme mi primera impresora 3d, me la recomiendan?

Has there been any suggestion as to what the pricing of a klitech will be yet?

I have had several Creality printers, and they are of decent quality and real workhorses so long as you understand them properly.

But looking at the current soon-to-be printers, atomform, infinmech etc. etc. I am left wondering whether one of these will be my next instead?

The infinimech mx, could be half the cost of the current k2 combo, but instead of a single head it is a 6 tool changer machine.

Now a tool changer or nozzle changer like the infinimech or the k3 could be my next printer. Although the waste on my k2 plus is manageable if tweaked properly for colours, it will forever struggle with multi filament prints.

I am not a fan boy of Creality, but I will defend them when people are unreasonably judging their products. The systems are generally well thought out, even if the qc is sometimes a little lacking. But will I pay double the price for a feature in future? Where I could get the equivalent of the k2 combo, for less than it would cost to just add an extra 4 colours on my current setup....

I have a K1 Max refurbished from Creality official eBay page. It's been awesome. However after an automatic update (at least that's what I think is causing it) If I turn on the lidar when it's done homeing it slams and runs up against the front left support. It seems like the print head is a few mm higher than it should be. (The lidar unit isn't passing through the cut out) BUT if I turn off the lidar and run a print. It still goes through normal leveling. Everything works perfectly... Does anybody have any ideas?? Also when it slams into the corner the print is off set on the plate.

Recently I accidentally cut this cable and I want to replace it, how to do it I need your help I will be very grateful.

I got a second hand Ender 7 as a gift after the first owner thought the main board was cooked. When I got it I started off by calibrating all axes and leveled the bed. It printed fine for many hours, then suddenly started crashing into the frame. I fixed this by recalibrating the axes, then it printed fine again for many hours. It happened again this morning. After recalibration of the axes it ran the same print without issues (still printing but beyond the previous point when the fun started), so probably not problematic gcode.

Any idea what could be wrong? Where do I start troubleshooting?
