The issue you encountered here is filament being tangled, and it happens when the filament is shipped with no spool, or when it is improperly handled. It's best you order 1kg spool of PLA+ filament to get started. I don't really recommend PLA as it's a bit troublesome, but it's cheaper.
@@maharlikaheir depends what you want to use the things for, sunlu is cheap and good enough, maybe you can get even cheaper bulk pla spools for prototyping or something better and stronger like esun pla+ but thats 20€/kg
Seems like you got what looks to be a Bambu Lab P1P *clone* ! Though you may have to dial some settings here, specifically retraction settings. What slicer do you use?
@Agrinchthatsgrouchy483 Nice. Try printing some calibration towers, primarily the temperature tower, retraction distance tower and retraction speed tower. Don't print them together. Then, whoose which value looks best and input it into the slicer
@@JustinNewton1117 I don't think you should mod while being a beginner... It is best he learns about each component of a 3d printer and the risks of modding first.
@@kjl_18 I mean everyone starts somewhere and he is going to be looking for a few projects very soon. I'm not telling him to jump to klipper or anything. Its just some fun customizations to make the printer look cool. Thank you for your input though.

@kjl_18 thanks! But everything seems to be better now.
what do you recommend? PETG-HF?

@@maharlikaheir fyi PLA and PLA+ are not the same, though similar.
You have a textured PEI build plate and printing in PLA, chances are you do not need to use glue on that plate.

@@kjl_18 i use orca slicer
It's a flashforge adventurer 5m
@Dex-zj8yo I am aware it is a flashforgr adventurer 5m, but it looks oddly similar to bambu lab's p1p. This is what I was trying to say here.

@kjl_18 I'll maybe try sometime
jump on printables...look up dark doctor studios....all the adventurer 5m mods you could want.
@@JustinNewton1117 okay 👍

For 299$ should've gotten the bambu lab A1 instead.... they are more user friendly and have a better ecosystem. refund while you can!
yeah that printer is probably gonna die soon and it doesnt has an enclousure either...
