#TeachingTech on Youtube has a video for #Creality #CR6SE style leveling, which is what I have, for the #Ender3

Load cell leveling is great, I use it, but it can have its quirks. Just make sure that the bowden tube doesn't mess with the sensor. If you have a direct drive, then I think it would be one of the best solutions if you don't have the flexibility of a #Voron #Stealthburner.

The next good place to start is Slicer Flow Calibration.

This calibrates your flow and extrusion of your printer. This mostly comes into affect with layer adhesion and adhesion between walls.

If you are noticing gaps between your walls, when using multiple walls, or that your print dimensions are off, this is most likely the problem.

This one is also not that simple to tune, it you need to test it with multiple filaments to get a base line and get something that "almost" works and then tune it further.

I usually tune it to my printer and then to my filament. I do this by calibrating the slicer flow and extrusion width in my slicer for the printer and my extruder and then increasing the extrusion multiplier for each individual filament as I need it.

For example, my extrusion multiplier for #PLA is 1.0 but 1.07 for #ABS.

Often the first thing to calibrate by many is the z-offset. This is not wrong, but because I already have my z-offset so well tuned for my 0.4mm nozzle at 0.21mm, it isn't too wrong to just use this for my 0.6mm nozzle.

Some would notice that 0.21 is just more than half of 0.4, so 0.3 or something in that range could work for a 0.6mm nozzle.

Could be, but I have found that z-offset is no perfect science and it is just one of those things that you need to test.

But because of the effects and improvements due to #LinearAdvance, I like to tune it first. Because, on a single line you would not notice an incorrect z-offset at all, except if it is completely wrong and you get no bed adhesion at all.

So by eliminating that factor, you can then safely tune the z-offset after Linear Advance
