I love (and hate) that all Ender 5 Pro by default are super messy with the cable management (which is basically not existent, because for some weird reason they decided to have all wires 10 centimeters too short for proper cable management). One day I'll print some parts to optimize the wiring.
I like the humor. Lots of channels with no humor just makes it too bland. I believe it helps with making the viewer more interested and immersed. Nice video btw! 👍🏻
In videos like this it makes a lot of sense. It isn't meant to be a quick-fix vid, right? Mostly just an interest tour of possibilities, which lends itself well to humourous moments.
Great video. I really liked the idea to use black for the 3d printed parts but also it made them harder to see on the video. Especially the strain relief for the bed cable. Thanks for all the info.
The timing of this video is incredibly ironic for me at least, we drove to your location back in March to pickup our Ender 5Pro. Just a few days ago I printed the LCD rear cover, somehow I pinched the ribbon cable and sparks flew and blew the mainboard, drove down to your store yesterday and picked up the Big Tree Tech SKR Mini E3 v2.0 and matching TFT touch screen. I've also order and installed the Micro Swiss DD from your online store, delivery was incredibly fast!
Thanks for this video! Very good ideas and keep them coming! I'd love one about firmware updates. I just got an Ender 5 Pro and spent waaaay too long figuring out how to update the firmware. The official Creality versions of Marlin don't have the best documentation and any of the bin files with BLTouch just caused my machine to *literally* scream. Had to go back to the "endstop" version. But I know there are much more updated versions of Marlin out there and I'm not sure if I can use them. Thanks!
For such a powerful printer, the floppy bed is incomprehensible. I got an older model Ender 5 but upgraded it (for free) with Klipper. It's a flying machine now, I just have to sort out the problem of the extruder not being able to pull plastic off the reel - the PTFE trick sounds good but a bearing would be smarter.
I grew as a member of a USN family (dad did 47 years, brother 27, I did 6) and my mother (who would send care packages from everywhere to where the ship was, taught me a rule for packages (especially going overseas to ships) pack it like someone is going to drop it off the the roof of a three story building, I think I would rather have to fight to get into something than waste time shipping it back....
You wouldn't have had to struggle with the bed strain relief if you had put the bed supports on correctly. The thingiverse link clearly shows the correct way to use them... (you put them on the wrong sides)
Were the stabilizers for the bed 3D printed? And if so, can u leave a link for the stl or the gcode file? If u can’t can you tell me where I can go to buy some?
Should have shown putting on the covers for the X axis belt guides/rollers and definitely for the Y axis guides/rollers that are right at the front corners of the Ender 5 and 5 pro where if you, your wife, or children have long hair it wont take long for one of you to not think about why you shouldn't lean to close over the printer. For me, it doesn't feel good when my arm hair got caught in them and if you have stink bugs like we do here in Ohio, it's not fun cleaning their squished remains and the stink from these parts!
How do you manually move the bed up and down? i dont mean leveling it, i just got my ender 5 pro and it seems to have clogged already, but i cant get to the nozzle very well because the bed is in the way and i cant seem to move it down
Go into prepare, then select move axis, and adjust your Z axis to move the stage down. Not sure this is the easiest way, but this is what I do to move the stage down
The Ender 5 that I recently purchased (Dec 2020) does not have a cantilevered build plate -- it seems they are evolving the design rapidly -- every ender 5 video I look at (to learn more) has a different version of the ender 5. (EDIT) I have the 5 plus .. not the pro
Their input is pulses, i.e., a square wave. A sine wave input is quieter but cutting off the corners of the squares can result in a phase shift and a lack of precision so the engineering is complicated.

I loved it !! It’s what I came to the comments to talk about! Let’s me know what to expect when I when I buy it..👌🏽👌🏽
Great video.

Thanks for all the info.
I definitely took note of this when we were editing and we will use brighter colours to make it easier to see in future videos. Great point!

I know I am kinda off topic but does anybody know a good place to stream new movies online?
@Iker Emanuel definitely, been using Flixzone for since march myself :)
@Iker Emanuel Thank you, I signed up and it seems to work :) I appreciate it !!
@Markus Andrew happy to help :D

Yeah great video! Thanks for the upgrades. I just got the Ender 5 so I appreciate this so much!

loved the review, i guess we went a little over the top on packaging?
And it doesn't help that I didn't have an exacto knife handy
Isn’t there a perforated tear-off strip on the back?????
Hey, idiot proof packaging is a feature, not a bug!
@@Rocketyfox that's not nice.

4 lines ☝️to say You like the packaging bro 😂 jkjk
Someone said me "dont buy ender 5 pro, buy a cr 6 se. What do you think about this? Thank you so much :)

Awesome vid. Exactly what I needed as a newbie.
Great info! Subscribed! Glad to have found your channel and store!
Just found your channel because i was looking to buy an Ender 5 Pro heh. Need inventory though!
Can these work woth the ender 5? Im new to 3D printing. I thought i was buying the pro, but tirns out it was the 5.
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! lol
Great upgrade video.
I have made all the opgrads you mentioned on my ender 3...
Great and funny video 👍😀
Could you
or has something similar been done for a Creality 6 se on this channel?
“we won’t :)” ahhahah i’m dead dude
Can you print tose strain reliefs out of pla or not
How do you manually move the bed up and down? i dont mean leveling it, i just got my ender 5 pro and it seems to have clogged already, but i cant get to the nozzle very well because the bed is in the way and i cant seem to move it down

Hello 👋 How can I get the program to print those parts?
Do you offer the printed parts for sale? If like to buy them all.
Where the hell am I going to find that screw? and if I was going to buy one I don't just get one I get like 200 so what is the point of that?
the bed support will make you lose the print height witch was the hole point of buying the ender 5 pro
I loved the review bro...

Newbie question: Do stepper drivers have moving parts? I.e. how are they noisy? Do they vibrate? Why are some more quiet than others? Thanks.
Their input is pulses, i.e., a square wave. A sine wave input is quieter but cutting off the corners of the squares can result in a phase shift and a lack of precision so the engineering is complicated.
@@richardhaas39 Thank you!
Thank you, I like your videos!
where to i download these printable upgrades
Oh, added humor? I thought it was a tantrum outake😂
So where can I get the files for the extra's are they on thingverse.
can you do a review of the sunlu s8 printer?
We don't carry SunLu printers, so unless they want to send me one, I don't think we'd be doing a video on that. Sorry
I wish someone would come out with a DD for the CR-6 (Max here). I like DD over bowden as well.
Brilliant intro haha. Excellent Review!
Why not print some zip ties for those supports?
Sometimes it's simply not worth the effort to print something when they're that cheap and plentiful
My printer seems to struggle making these supports as in it fucks it up everytime
Great info!
where is the links for these free upgrades?????????????????????????????
404 page not found for Wham Bam flexible build. anyone know of a good alternative to this?
Time for unboxing lessons i’d think
It's 2022. Have you bought a knife yet? 🤣
Bed supports mess up every time when printing.
Drilling a hole would be much easier/nicer than burning a hole on that bed brace. Just saying...
lol he did everything but bite that package..........
It crossed my mind.
What humor?
