Following the video blindly will cause damage to some folks' printers because of a couple of very important steps skipped. First one is the assumption that the gear ratio on the new metal extruder would not be different. For people who purchase the upgrade somewhere other than Creality, or buy a dual gear model instead, this will be the case. Whenever you mess with the extruder assembly, you should always calibrate for extrusion. There is a simple math for adjusting it. Looks like your z limit switch was already at the lowest reach which causes springs to be compressed to the maximum. Then you installed incorrect size (longer) springs which significantly raised the bed level, and the nozzle crashed into it. You should have adjusted the z axis limit switch up by 5mms to account for the different size springs.
thanks for vid awesome & helpful ! quick question tho I've been having popping when filament becomes tight when pulling on roll I've tried everything cant figure whats going on ?
Thank you i did all my upgrades when i built my new ender works great.i had to calabrate my estps i had the red exstruder bid you do the same with the creality one?

Great insight! If you buy a 3d party extruder, please read above!
Fantastic ode to top gear intro!
Today I test the fastest 3D printer, IN THE WORLD!!!
I've made some upgrades to my Creality Ender 3 V2 3D Printer!

Hi, I have not recalibrated my steps, no!
The springs... "round wound" and "flat wound"... like guitar strings
E1-571g model
Whats the size of Dvd caddy?
bad camera angle. good assembl
Are you still planning to make or upload the video about the BL Touch?
Hi there, yes, I've just been a little busy. Hopefully this Saturday I will upload. Thanks for watching!
love the intro, but aren't you ripping off jeremy clarkson
Worst bud ever bro.
