You really helped me get this thing together, at 60 it's not actually my thing but I'm expanding my horizons.
Ty ty. Watched a 6 min how to 3 times thinking I was good. Opened the box and went ya no. You were super detailed explaining every step and the orientation that everything needed to go. Made this super easy and I didn't real even have to pause. Mine came with a few different screws that yours but instructions in box got that covered for the new screw sizes. Fantastic video 10/10.
I felt the same way when i saw the instructions that came with it. Lol
Thank you. My first printer explanation was perfect to the point but enough detail to be a wonderful help. You Made it an easy Assembly.🎉
You my good sir probably saved me from 5 hours of frustration very hopeful video and great tips thank you
Thank you! Instructions paper that came with printer were not very good.
Great video! I just ordered this printer and it will be here tomorrow. It's replacing a Voxelab Aquila X2 that I've had for a couple years and it has been nothing but a pain in the rear. The hotend on my Voxelab finally fried and I just decided to upgrade to a bigger, nicer printer. Longer's assembly video is a mere 6 minutes long and makes it look too easy....which is usually a sign of a headache to come. Your assembly video is a godsend my friend! The only thing I have to figure out now is that I purchased a CR Touch auto-leveling unit to replace the Z-axis sensor switch. It's a simple bolt on device that plugs into the motherboard but then requires a firmware upgrade. They have instructions on the Longer website...I'm hoping they are pretty straight forward. Anyway, I'm curious how you've liked this printer now that you've had it for a couple years.
Thank you again!
The only issue I've had is the USB port becoming intermittent connection, so am going to replace the motherboard. This may be my fault that it failed due to how I had it setup. Otherwise, works fine and is used mainly for just large format prints.
This was very helpful! Many thanks.
I especially appreciated the comments on leveling and on correcting "bed wobble."
The LK5 is my first printer and between this video and your follow-on video (Longer 3D Printer Startup) I learned all I needed to know to get it working. Longer's assembly video is way out of date, apparently.
to everyone building this with the DUAL BLOWER EXTRUDER, here are corrections:
7:25 - you’ll need the 4x18 screws, not the 16
8:57 - you’ll need the 4x30 screws, not the 20
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! It made putting ours together so much easier. I appreciate your tutorial video.
Thank you so much for the video!!!
Pretty cool, I got mine yesterday and was surprised how well the wheels on mine were tensioned on the rail. Another brand I've got two of that are really great quality are Sovol Sv01 and 02, can't believe how nice they come from the factory ready to rock
Here before became viral
Really appreciated the detail setup. Thank you so much for the video. I just started the whole 3D printing process. Can't wait to checkout more videos.
You might mention that when leveling the bed, clockwise rotation raises the bed and counterclockwise lowers it. Also, if you are lucky like I am, and you get a machine with the z-axis lock screw missing, it takes an M3-12mm. You won't hear ANYTHING from Longer support if you email them and ask for the size.
This is the most important part of assembly if you want to avoid possible damage or fire with your new 3D Printer 18:38
Thank You
Hey there, thank you so much for this incredible video! I’m not able to push the arm down like you are in the video. I have to screw the gold washer on the screw rod in order to move it down. How are you able to move the arm up and down without doing that?
Rodger, you have all the cool stuff.... thanks
I finally watched this do I could try and assemble mine. Big mistake. First its awkward sliding on the xaxis gantry since he talks about what is facing you(him) yet you're looking at it from the back, unless watching in a mirror it takes some thinking to figure orientation. Next he states incorrect bolts/screws to use several times. (READ INSTRUCTIONS, NOT WHAT HE STATES). This caused me to remove screws and redo some things. 7:38 he states wrong screws for the stepper motor. Instructions states M4*18 he sys M4*16, then to install gantry to base 9:06 he incorrectly states M5*20 but there are only 2 for the filament holder, you need the 4 M5x 30s. So take the audio with a grain of salt.
Do you a detailed version of the hot end re-assembly? Also what do you do if your printer came without the z axis limit switch white tape?
Other than changing the nozzle a few times, I've never had any reason to take it apart.
i got a brand new one yesterday thats missing a screw.
Yeah, that can happen with just about anything. We purchased a deck swing last spring that was missing the entire hardware package!
@@rogersshop I got it working and it's a great printer. But I woke up today tried to print, and I'm having trouble getting the first layer to stick... how important is ambient heat in the room. It was pretty chilly in the room I was attempting to print.
@@ProjectShinkai Yes, it makes a difference and I even did a video about it a while back: ruclips.net/video/5NAPbisa_98/видео.html
@@ProjectShinkai Hey Chris. I live in Wisconsin here it is -12 right now I got the house at 65. I just set my bed temp to 70, and nozzle temp to 210. Boy does it work smooth as butter. Hopefully this will help out.
Bought the Longer LK5 Pro 3d printer and it didn't work right out of the box. The Z axis would only go up but not down, wouldn't home and was doing strange things. So, I contacted Longer support to find out that my printer had a bad motherboard. Then they told me they would ship me a new motherboard and to fix it myself. I guess they got the name LONGER for it want work long but takes longer to get it fixed. I wouldn't trust anything with the brand name Longer on it. I have three other 3d printers from three different manufactures and have had no issues. Again, I wouldn't trust anything with the brand name Longer on it.
A defective machine can come from any manufacturer. Had it happen many times. Want some real tech support problems? Try Creality!!
My printer didn't come with the bed strain relief piece. Strange! Thanks for the vid!
Look underneath the screw nearest to the cable into the bed. I was just about to print mine when I checked, and it was already mounted on the screw but rotated pointing towards the middle of the table, completely hidden under its supports.
@@sharpfang thank you for the heads up. Just checked again & yep nothing there 😂 you got lucky I guess
1 last question i keep getting a problem where the filament taaangles, how do you personally deal with that.
If it is tangling on the spool, then you have a "cross-wrap" that needs to be sorted out. Dealt with this for many years working as an electrician and having spools of wire get a cross wrap in them. Very important that when you open a spool of filament to hold onto the tag end and not let it go wild or you may end up with a cross-wrap and a tangle.
@@rogersshop thank you. You've earned a subscriber.
Roger, how can I find the video you did of the acrylic key chains where you used the transparent film? Thank you
Wasn't me.........
@@rogersshop hmm ok. I thought for sure it was. They were acrylic key tags and the photos were printed on the transparent paper. Sorry about that. I love watching your videos! Very informative! Thank you!
