The Creality Ender 3 V3 SE is very good. There, I said it!

Ғылым және технология

In my recent video criticizing Creality for still selling the original Ender-3 after so many years, many of you said to check out their latest budget offering - the Ender-3 V3 SE. Is it better than the original?

    I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. But that is not a problem that is particular to 3D printing. Its the same throughout the IT/Technology world. Those people that really understand a subject seem to forget that they knew nothing at one point years ago. They start rattling off words and just assume that everyone can understand what they are saying. I use a free and open source 3d modeling/video editing/game making program called Blender3D. I found it online back in 2001. I downloaded it and installed it, fired it up and the interface was so confusing that I shut it down and did not fire the program back of for 6 months. ( To be fair Blender3D was originally written for an SGI graphics workstation running UNIX. The creators just did a straight port to windows and did not bother to change things to fit the new operating system) I finally got determined to learn it and just kept on reading so called "tutorials" on line. i finally came across a tutorial where you created a hammer standing on a wood grain surface. The author went step by step, keystroke by keystroke. I successfully completed it and have been using Blender ever since. But if it were not for that one tutorial I would have given up. These days the situation has gotten even worse since social media and the internet are popular. These days people just press the record button on a screen recording program and start to talk. They seem clueless to the fact that the people that will be watching the so called "tutorial" cannot see their keyboard or mouse. I mentioned this on a Blender3d forum and got totally flamed.

    I’m not a proponent of the industry trend to block the ability to fully customize the source code on klipper devices.

    Super happy with my V3 SE as a first 3d printer, easy to setup and get started. I did find exactly the same issue with the slicer, some models I imported it does weird things to the inner perimeter. I couldn't find any fix for it so tried Prusa slicer, it had no issues with the same model so I stuck with it and like it :) From the perspective of someone who wants a 3D printer as a tool to use, to print out some of the ideas in my head, this printer has been brilliant for me.

    I just got this printer recently, and I have to say I appreciate how "sticky" the bed is. I don't use any glue stick, and only once did I have a print get knocked out of place, and that was with cheaper PLA. And regarding TPU, I print it at 70° with no problems, the prints peel up easily enough afterwards. Also, the screen isn't becoming "unresponsive" during automatic functions, it locks you out because it's busy.

    A glue stick is used as an adhesion *inhibitor*. It allows for easier separation from the build surface and is suitable for more flexible filaments, like PETG and TPU, which can destroy smooth PEI. Adjust your Z offset and clean the print surface if you have adhesion issues.

    I got one of these a while back to get into the tool space, after watching your previous ender-3 video. I got this printer as a tool, not a hobby (I don’t care about open source or modality). I was up and running in 30 minutes, no issues since, and no tuning. It has been an amazing tool that has allowed me to build parts that I couldn’t before, and at an incredibly low price. For what it’s worth, I have no high spot on my printer bed, my leveling outputs are all quite consistent. I did have some odd slicer outputs similar to what you displayed, I haven’t found why it happens, or a definitive solution, although it’s mostly a non issue. Edit: thanks for the slicer profile, I will give that a shot

    I was gifted and just started using for my first ever machine a V2. I must have got one of the good ones because it's been pretty easy to use so far. My one giant complaint has been loading filament into the drive module. The factory hole past the rollers is maybe 2mm wide and almost impossible to thread into. So I drilled it out to about 4-5mm and now I can swap filament far more easily. I did see your video about the z-axis limit switch being too high, and I made that modification as well. The run-out on the springs is a real problem. Today I'm getting a spring steel print bed to upgrade from the glass. Thanks for the well made and informative videos!

    I bought one on pre-order. It's my first printer and I love it! The coating on the bed came off but Creality sent me a replacement. I removed the full coating and the glue from the old one and ordered a thin sheet of G10, which I then glued on the spring steel. This way I don't need to use clamps but I get the benefits of G10 print bed. I haven't even used the new build plate they sent me.

    I had exactly the same thing happen to me, on the VERY FIRST print. Solved it by putting a glass bed on it. I have now put 4 full spools through it with no issues, I really hate these flexible plates, never worked for me in the past . I had hoped with the auto levelling that this machine would be different, but no. I also have a replacement build sheet from them, but like you it's still in the box....lol

    The K1 on sale right now for $350 is a worthwhile upgrade, I just got one but returned it because the gantry belts don't line up and cause part warp of about 0.5-1.5%. Which for most all prints doesn't matter and you won't notice, but once you start making precise parts that need to fit perfectly then anywhere near 1% is a deal breaker. I wanted a appliance type printer, I already have 4 other printers that I've designed parts and upgrades myself for them, didn't want to dig into a new project. Hence I returned it

    I have bought one of these as my first 3D printer. Is well worth the price. I do have several nits. Like you the bed was too sticky and I changed it. Also agree the left corner on was high until I fixed and the hood is BIG. The only real bug is with the auto bed level. The auto z-offset tends to be a bit to high. Causing the 2nd layer sometimes dragging on the first. Lowering a bit fixes that problem. BTW I get OK quality w/ 170 mm/sec on TLA but usually max at 150-130.

    Honestly, comparing the ender 3 v2 to my Wanhao Duplicator i3, I've had only 1 real issue with my v2 and that was recent. The main driving gear collate had such a deep groove from the filament that it could no longer push the filament correctly. I didn't expect it to wear out after maybe... 4 spools of PLA? Otherwise, great machine so far. Also, thank you for making the video about laser cutters a few months back. My parents asked me if I would use a laser cutter or a lathe more and I did discover that laser cutters can act a little like lathes with the right tools. Even though the one I got doesn't have an enclosure, I'm not going to even plug it in until I get one (the enclosure and cutter were outside of their budget). Sucks that even the lowest end fully enclosed laser is still like $1,000 USD. I've been wanting one for years but knew the logistic nightmare while still being safe. I will absolutely be rewatching that video many times while considering what to cut. Thank you ^^.

    I just received a KE yesterday and wow, this thing rocks. It prints filament that other printers fail on. Process: Grab printer, spend 5 minutes putting it together, power it up, connect it to my WiFi (easy), grab my usual print and the worst filament I have (Stronghero Galaxy Chameleon), load their slicer, slice it as usual with no support. After a single failed print (my fault), it just crushed the first print in 10 hours. What were the changes you made? I do get some stringing, but it's not terrible (compared to the nightmare of stringing that my Prusa has) and I'd love to get rid of stringing where I can.

    Hey Angus, Awesome video & good to see this inexpensive legend gettting some of the love it deserves. I'm a teaching assistant in the technology faculty of a school & we acutally bought 3 of these machines very shortly after they launched in an attempt to take the load of lower priority prints off of our farm of Prusa I3's. We're running them exculsivley on Esun PLA+ to keep things simple and mostly using them for less important jobs and those from younger students. We've found them to be really easy to setup and run and havn't had any major issues yet, which I can't even say about the prusa MK4's. For those who are on tight budgets or just looking for a lot of output at minimal cost, I'd struggle to reccomend anything else at this point. One thing I'd reccomend to you is to make a prusaslicer printer profile based off of the Ender 3 S1 profile that is included in prusaslicer, the two printers are very similar in build and even use the same exruder. You'll end up with a stack of ready to use print profiles for a range of layer heights that produce excellent results and require basically no tuning - it's been working really well for us so far - hope that helps. Also, I think that there we're some other creality printers that launched recently that use the same shape of spring steel sheet with a PEI coating (might have been the K1?), those would probably make for a great drop-in upgrade over the standard sheet.

    3 weeks into a v3 SE as my first printer. ABL and auto Z worked well at first but now it never hits the mark. I have to manually level the mesh now which takes sometimes over a dozen test prints.

    I'm new to the 3D printing world, but a dinosaur in the manufacturing industry. I like my Ender 3 S1 Pro. I was easy enough to get started with and advanced enough to make some really good prints. I tend to create more functional models, not that artist models don't have their purpose. The S1 Pro seems to produce fairly repeatable results. Some of the print in place moving models are a little tight, but I think that could be tuned out with some testing. The S1 Pro had the biggest bed of an almost fully assembled printer that I could afford at the time. I do wish I'd had the funds for a multicolor model.

    I had the same infill bug several times in the slicer.

    Yes having an X1C would be nice, but if my Ender 3 breaks I can fix it. I’ve modified it enough to know how to fix it and the parts are easy to get or print. Your reasoning for wanting the V3 is the same as mine. Don’t sleep on the Kingroon KP3S Pro either. I put Klipper on mine and for the price, it prints beautifully.

    The first time I ever printed on my Ender 3 the part stuck to the bed so well that part of it's still there 6 months later. The purple washable glue sticks are a must-have. I'm sure there are others that work well too, but these are guaranteed to work... so I recommend trying these first and then buy other products to try in between when you're not printing anything important.

    As soon as I got an Anycubic Vyper I never touched my Ender 3 Pro again. Now that I just got a Bambu Labs X1C 😅😅 Well, I haven't ran my Vyper since. That's mostly because it's slightly disassembled in getting ready for the enclosure Im building for it. And after finally getting into printing nylon inside with the X1C, I realized I really need a new hotend for the Vyper. And I need to get Klipper running on it but gave up making that work as I got the Raspberry Pi and X1C at roughly the same time so all my time spent printing is mostly going towards trying all sorts of different filaments and modeling upgrades and what not.

    For the £180 I paid for my V3 SE, i can't complain about it at all. I've had no issues at all with it so far. Replaced the part cooling fan with two 5010 blowers but other than that it's stock. I never used Creality Print with it though. Mostly Cura with 30mm/s jerk and 2500mm/s acceleration. No regrets at all buying that printer, and I haven't used my Sovol SV06 much since I got it, since i have a lot more issues with that, particularly the mesh levelling. Almost always catches parts if i don't keep z-hop enabled on that printer, and that slows things down a lot, not to mention stringing.

Also closer to the price point of the bambulab a1 mini. I know it's yet another ender 3 to review. But i would love to know your take on the v3 KE.
