The PEI bed sheet comes with a big magnet that is sticky on the back, and you place it on your heater bed. It works great.

Very informative…Thanks!!!! New Sub for ya. BTW, mine is in route to me and I can’t wait to start printing stuff!!!

One of the best tips I have seen is to use simple table sugar and water as an adhesive on your printer, best for glass beds , the adhesion is second to none, and really works good, no rafts, skirts or brims needed. All you do is take half a teaspoon of table sugar and put in a glass, then add a few drops of water, that's all you need. You then put the sugar water mixture in your microwave and microwave it for 5 secs, no more than that. Once you start printing you will notice that the part really sticks to the bed when the bed is hot, and comes off easily when the bed is cold. To clean the bed simple water will dissolve the mixture and make your bed as clean as new. For cleaning plastic residue from the glass bed ,, at the home where I live they use Vertigo Saber as a disinfectant, I find that this solvent does not harm glass and takes off all plastic residues that may be on your bed.

The issue you described with the BL Touch wiring is caused by induction. It's a common issue and the reason why many data cables have a choke on them at the end or are shielded. Also why ethernet cables have the wiring twisted inside. Twisting the wiring helps counter the induction. My first upgrade was the springs and a Capricorn tube during setup. I am keeping my spool up top for space savings on my workbench, but have added upper and lower filament guides, so I have a nice smooth arc coming off the spool and into the extruder. The metal extruder was an early upgrade and I ordered mine before it cracked. I had a lot of print issues early on and I discovered after about 10 days that my extruder lever was cracked. The replacement arrived a few hours later. I also have several drones, though I consider them as flying still cameras and not doing any FPV. Would be interested in seeing what you have 3D printed for the drones.

@509drone2

Appreciate the info bro, that makes perfect sense when comparing them to ethernet cables, and other shielded cables. I agree about the space saving with the spool being on top as well. I didn't think about it until after I moved it, but liked how it is a straight shot into the extruder so ive kept mine on the side. Thats awesome you fly drones as well! I'll be posting some more drone content soon.

I've been to hobby shops and seen their prices. Maybe you could print something tiny (1:160 scale) just to se how the printer would handle small pieces. Can such a printer even handle tiny detail pieces? That would lie very helpful, at least to me. Great video; thanks for posting!

Well, I only use PLA and I'm completely satisfied with the stock configuration. I rarely have any issues with my prints. The only thing I would recommend was to replace the bed leveling springs. Other than that if you're a hobbyist you're totally fine with the rest. Just a bit of patience adjusting the bed and tweak a few Cura settings an you're good to go. I really don't see the point on trying to get the perfect setup from a modest but very capable machine. After several months reading forums posts I can only assume that there will always be some problem despite of what you modify. "The feeding tube is too short", "the feeding tube is too long", "the tube melts", "change the nozzle", "I've changed the nozzle and now it's worse", "the springs are too loose", "they are too tight", "change the glass", "change pla brand"... And the list goes on... endlessly! Guys, there's no perfect setup! Temperature of the room, humidity, slicer settings, small issues with the assembly, twisted cables, bed leveling, and the files themselves, etc. can influence the results. Make sure you understand your machine and configure it the best you can. If you get into this upgrade paranoia you'll be spending almost or even more than what you would've spent on a more sofisticated and more complete printer. That's just my opinion.

Yea I had a direct drive upgrade but ended up not putting it on. I was getting such good prints, I didnt see the reason to add it, other than increased speeds with tpu prints. But if you do, do the DD upgrade it is definitely a good idea to add the extra Z motor to support the heavier weight on the hot end.

everything on point but the last part where you said you couldn't notice a difference between pla and pla+ ... pla+ is way more stronger than regular pla.. specially SUNLU

Thanks brother! That's a very good thing to mention, thanks! I have not tested the strength of them so that didn't even cross my mind.

@@509drone2 I have been using pla+ to make prototype parts for factory machines so I should know haha. I can't keep up with the one printer I have so I'm planning to get the 3 v2.. I just wish it had dual z axis rods.

I just bought an ender 3 V2 and within two weeks the armature of the extruder no longer seems willing to go up vertically as it's printing. I find it hard to believe the stepper motor to go bad that fast. And my filament keeps getting jammed up and broken off in the Boden tube. Which I'm assuming is related to the fact that the filament has nowhere to go. Maybe that assumption is wrong I don't know. So far the manufacturer seems to be ignoring me. So I'm sending out an SOS. Please help

Jump in our discord bro, a lot of helpful people in there. Its linked in the description. I'm not sure about the extruder motor stopping working. It sounds like you have something else causing the problem. As for the broken filament thats more then likely cheaper/old filament. Even if it jams, it normally doesn't break. If the filament keeps jamming, make sure you are using the correct size filament for your printer. It should be 1.75mm. Also try replacing your nozzle. Sometimes the nozzles get clogs in them, and that will cause jamming. Replacing the nozzle would be a good idea to try.

I see some dji goggles down there.

Thanks for the comment Thomas. You can't go wrong with the Ender 3 v2. If you want to save a little bit of money, the Ender 3 pro is also an extremely good choice. If you want bigger print volume, then check out the CR-10 series printers from creality. Let me know if you have any other questions!
