    I just finished the build and I can say like so many others that this video is spot on. I would have probably screwed up in many more places than I did. The Z axis switch was too low and the plate banged into the rear stepper. I adjusted the switch and raised the plate and re-leveled the build plate. Now it is perfect. This is not my first 3D printer but it is amazing ! Thanks Vlad.

    @hellonwheelz3317 6 месяцев назад +3

    I bought my Ender 3 V2 yesterday. Put it together last night. I wish I'd watched this video before I built it. This video is far better than the instructions that come with the printer. First, the instructions don't identify which struts go where. I figured it out, but it would have been nice if they had identified them by the location of the holes like Vlad did. I also neglected to make sure the preinstalled screws were tight. I'll do that when I get home from work. The next problem is that the instructions tell you to install the x-axis tensioner and pulley before you install the hot end. If you did it that way, you'll be taking it apart to install the hot end on the x-axis rail before you install the tensioner. Nowhere in the instructions does it mention that the rollers have eccentric adjusters. I got to check that, too. The instructions don't tell you to lower all your plate adjusting screws before leveling it, and consequently, I put a scratch in mine because I neglected to do that. Instructions don't say what to do with the zip ties either. I was still able to build, level, and fire up this thing in about an hour, but it would have been so much easier if Creality would have included THIS video with their printer instead of the one they did include. This looks like a very well thought out machine. I haven't printed anything yet, but I look forward to putting it through its paces later this evening. I have to give props to Vlad for producing an excellent video. Liked and subscribed.

    This video is life saver! I've watched it before I bought the printer. When I assembled my printer I tried to follow the paper installation guide. It's literally a guide, missing so many details. I was never sure how to position the parts. Some can fit in many ways.

      It is very good. The included instructions are virtually unreadable to me, and this video makes a great replacement. I find it quite irritating when he uses the word "bolt" for screws, bolts *and nuts, and when he says "axes" instead of "axis" but if that's all I can find to complain about they amount to nothing.

    it is absurdly cool to see you printed those gears and that octopus in one piece, and yet they still moved.

    This was really helpful video setting up my new printer. The user guide that comes with the printer is not addressing most of the alignment and tuning issues mentioned in the video. That said there are two steps that needs to be corrected in the video, one quite important the other just a cosmetic one.
    The important thing to correct is the z-axis switch placement (at 14:35) which this video tells you to install too low. The switch does not go all the way until the stop hits the top of the base but instead the bottom of the switch needs to be on the same level as the top of the base. If you install the switch like shown in the video you can still get the print surface low enough so that the nozzle does not hit it but then there's no more flex and room to go down if the nozzle accidentally goes too low as the springs under the plate have been fully compressed. I think the switch assembly is the same as original Ender 3 and without the glass top it was OK to install switch like shown in this video but with V2 and the glass top you want to install it bit higher. This was mentioned at least by +
    AR Plays in an earlier comment and maybe someone else too.
    The second minor correction is that the spool holder does not need to go backwards as mentioned at 25:55 but you can install it having "the nice" side at towards the front of the printer.
    I suggest you start with the assembly video included in the SD card to get a quick overview how to assemble your new printer but without actually doing anything yet and then come to this video to get more detailed assembly and fine tune instructions.

      This may depend a little bit depending how your setup goes. The instructions show lining up the switch with the bottom of the z support bracket (which aligns with top of base) and not against the stopper protruding out like he did in the video. However, once I went to level the bed, the nozzle could not get close enough to the base without the knobs on the base going full loose (not coming off, but being way too loose to work properly). So I would suggest installing according to your comment and the official instructions, but then adjusting it lower if needed like I had to. It's at least very easy to adjust after setup.

      This! I couldn't agree more. I noticed when my print bed was pushed back it was colliding with the stepper motor because it's not designed to be that low down. This is a serious issue. I don't know if all printers are like that, but mine certainly was. You have to put the z switch a bit higher up, so the print bed will then be a bit higher so it doesn't collide with anything when pushed back. I'm sure a lot of people have had ruined prints because of this, as the collision is not super obvious.

    I am so incredibly thankful for this video. I have had some real issues with my printer and I've watched your video like 100 times (more like 25) you are a great teacher and I have been able to fix a few problems just from watching this video. I am still very inept when it comes to tech and especially 3d printing but I refuse to give up. I wish there was a place to ask questions of a single person who knows the specific printer because finding answers on say reddit or google is nearly impossible without hours of time spent searching. So, thank you so very much for helping this miniature dollhouse maker, make more things.

      Hi Beth, have you looked in the search on Facebook.
      I have ordered my Ender 3 V2 and I have joined a couple of groups there specifically targeting that model.
      It appears to me that there is a lot of "one on one" help going on there (in an informal way though).
      I just found them by searching in FB ( and there are a lot, I figured 2 would be enough.) But I'm happy to provide links if you need them.
      Cheers,
      Paul.

    • @DixieLynn
      @DixieLynn 3 года назад

      @@AJ-yg6ii try tightening down your bed all the way snug, not over tight. Now, on the side, make sure your Z stop board is as low as you can bolt it on. Also, make sure your screw shaft coupler is as close to the motor without binding as possible. Beyond that, I would recommend rewatching the video at those points and compare your printer to his.

      Yes the fan noise in the reviews is deceiving. I think Creality sent the reviewers a customized version of the V2 with super quiet fans. In reality the fans are loud but the stepper motors are very quiet. Very sneaky of Creality.

    When you tightened the bolts, the ones that were 'really loose' were only that loose because you tightened the first ones which pulled the parts closer together. If you tightened the other ones first the opposite bolts would seem excessively loose.

    Great video, I used it to put my Ender3 V2 together. Good news is that my first print came out pretty much perfect (the dog from the flash). Bad news was getting the Z axis going well. My problem was binding from the Z motor, which was making it hard for the gantry to raise and lower. After about three hours, I figured out that you could adjust the screws on the plastic bit just above the motor and push it out about 1mm away from the channel. I could also have done the same with the hole it feeds into on the gantry assembly. That would have been good to know, glad yours didn’t have the issue. I literally started from scratch to redo the build! That said, for the printer to have such a good first print shows that your technique of building loose then tightening was excellent advice. As an engineer, I generally do this anyway, but it was nice to get the reminder.
    Also, that Z driveshaft is SO LUBED. There was lube everywhere, and having the piece connecting the motor shaft to the z driveshaft with the screws so difficult to see, I spent about half my time just futzing with it. Almost worth it to wipe it down a bit.
    Very good stuff, have a tip

    Thanks for that wonderfull video. It will help many people setting up these printers.
    There is one small mistake tho, but thats somethink like a myth that every 3d printing enthusiasts will beleive in at some point.
    Setting the printer to Z=0.00mm and then leveling the bed with a sheet of paper will result in an uncorrectly leveled bed. If you think about it that becomes clear:
    The printer does not start the print at Z=0.00mm. It does start at Z=0.00mm + layerheight.
    So if you have a layerheight of the first layer of 0.2mm it will start at 0.2mm. If you level the bed to 0.00mm + paper thickness you will level it somewhere like 0.1mm off.
    So at the end the printer will start at Z=0.00mm + layerheight + paper thickness and thats something like 0.3mm in that example.
    So better is to autohome, then move z axis up for the thickness of the paper (messure with caliper) and then level the bed to the paper. That way you are elliminating the thickness of the paper and the printer will start at Z=0.00mm + layerheight as it should.
    Better than paper is to buy some feeler gauges and use a 0.1mm gauge or something like that and set the z axis while leveling the nozzle to the bed to exactly that thickness of the gauge.
    Maybe that will help more people to get a good first layer sticking perfectly to the bed. The more precise you level the bed, the better the first layer and the bed adhesion will be. There is NO need on that ultrabase bed for any other materials like glue, hairspray, tape or anything like that. If it does not stick correctly try to level the bed the way i told and maybe raise the bed temperature a few degrees. especially petg may need up to 85 degree celcius (185 fahrenheit) to stick well.
    Nice greetings from germany.
