It's important that all your TPU printing projects fit on the masking tape that's been on the print bed for 6 months.

There's no way... after all the repairs, I still cannot print anything larger than a few centimeters with my #creality #ender5 #3Dprinter... part of the #brim (and of the first layer as well) refuses to #stick to the #printbed. I can level the print bed and have the four angles at the right distance from the #nozzle (in fact the first extrusion sticks perfectly) but then the center is too low. I can place a little sheet of paper under the mat at the center of the print bed and then the center is ok, but some places around are lower... It's very #frustrating, and I really don't know what to do at this point... -

Replacement parts for the #creality #ender5 #3Dprinter has arrived today and I just replaced it. The #fans don't seem original to me, so I swapped only the broken one. The new one didn't come with the correct #connector, so I decided to #desolder the old wire and solder it directly to the new fan's pcb. Soldering inside the cabinet isn't very confortable 😅 but I didn't want to remove it all and my electronics bench isn't large enough anyway... Anyway, repair is done!
Let's see it I can complete a little print! -
I've got A LOT of failed prints with my #creality #ender5 #3Dprinter. It #clogs very easily. I tought the #filament was wet, but a couple of hours ago it #clogged very badly and I had to completely #disassemble the #extruder, #hotend and even cut a little piece of #bowdentube... before doing all this work I looked at a video explaining how to do it and...
...I SAW it. The #fan. The f...ing extruder fan in the video was running from the moment the #printer was switched on. I have never seen mine running, I always tought it was temperature controlled or something... It was just #jammed 🤦♂️ Unfortunately the plastic was very tired by the heat, so a blade broke instantly while cleaning it.
It seems I have to wait for a #replacement part, but at least I found the problem. That's why the printer was SO #temperamental! -

Are there any filament sensor thingies for the Ender 5 Pro?

It's very yellow.

Printed the ender 3 12mm probe bracket and slicer cut and printed just the mounting hole plate thickness for a spacer. This gave it enough room to clear the corner of the left Y wheel carriage. Full 220x220 print bed.
I also printed a strain relief so there's something besides the ptfe tube to hold the heater block wires.

Direct drive upgrades were installed.
A slow 15 minutes PLA+ cube and a very slow 58 minute TPU cube.
It's actually only the second thing I've printed in TPU, first was a USB-C dust plug with just a slowed down PETG or PLA profile and it was good enough and has been in use daily for.. 2 years! I do not recommend TPU on a bowden but it's doable.
It's Overture TPU which is not that soft.
The Micro Swiss NG works good. I'll be printing more TPU now.

Any #3dprinting folks around? I'm out of PETG for my #ender5 and need to re-stock. Previously used Amazon Basics but that seems to be discontinued. Does anyone know of a decent PETG filament that's available in the UK? Are any of the brands carried by Amazon any good?

@TipsyDixit Welcome, it seems much friendlier here. I have an #ender5 for my very much beginner level #3dprinting

Heute mal was vom Hobby. Hab mir Kopfhörer-Ständer (sagt man das so?) gedruckt. Hat ein paar Stunden gedauert hab aber exakt die Größe die ich brauch (hab die Größe im Programm angepasst) Schrauben gab's im Baumarkt. #3dprint #3dprinting #ender5
