I seriously don't get the point of this question. You print what you need, the way you need it to be printed. If a fast print doesn't work then it doesn't work and you print it for quality so it does work. A small container for screws works just as well if the surface is rough as when it is smooth so in that case it's up to you to decide what you want. There is no golden rule here, just requirements for the print and personal preference.

Issues with filament library 😢. Only Creality or "H" filaments. How configure regular pla, for example?

i have a ender v3 and i nedd to calibrate very good the you can make a tutorial please or you know some one the have a very goiod tutorial to calibrate a ender v3 ?

Still learned something even though I’ve been using the K1 for a while. I just need to find out how to smooth out the finish under a supported print. Did you get anywhere with this issue? I know you mentioned it in a previous video.

Wow your method is working very well!! i was struggling with support settings since almost 6 years :) this is just awesome thanks a lot!

Yes bill I love this, hair lookin fresh, pcbway sponsor I see you! Great informative video, as alwaaays keep up the hard work!💪💪

I really like this well-presented knowledge with a slight hint of storytelling, like a cowboy at the campfire :) . You have my Sub and Like!

This was awesome! I had no idea about adaptive layers. I am printing out some animals for hubby's Christmas manger project. On the cows and deer, their backs are like the top of your test. Not knowing about adaptive layer, my "solution" was the enable Ironing and set to all top layers. This worked very well and hide the top layers, BUT with a downside. I'm using this really nice, very shiny "Copper" PLA filament. It's shiny like a mirror (almost). BUT, when it gets to the ironing, while it hides the layers very well, it also causes the shine to be gone (or reduced a lot). So now, those top is obviously "different." I do print at 0.08 and that was the "minimum" that the slicer would allow.... UNTIL I saw how you are able to actually change the minimum! This is the best video! Thanks so much.

I got 2, Ender 3 V3 Plus printers last Sept. I come from a Cura background, so CP5 seemed to be a major change for me. But, I stuck with it and now, I really like CP5! I don't need to use anything else as my prints are the most gorgeous I've ever had. My old Wanhao Duplicator 9 MK2, 400 could never come close to the quality of the 3 V3 Plus. I'm using 5.1.4. I tried the current upgrade, 5.1.6 (I think it is) but quickly uninstalled it and am sticking with 5.1.4 The reason is, as a programmer, I really get annoyed when developers make decisions that many may not like. It may seem like a small thing, but now, the newest version, when you go to Project Save As, now defaults to 3mf instead of the Creality project extension. I tried to provide some logic on this, but that fell on deaf ears. For those who still use Cura for other machines and the default project is 3mf, may want to keep Creality Print with their own extension. This way, we can have Windows types set to launch Cura for .3mf and launch CP5 for their extension. But the devs just refuse to see that logic. It's just a pain that they didn't t least provide an option in Settings to choose the default project extension that we want. So, I stick with 5.1.4 and there are no issues. It just works. Sure, there's a few bugs, but I know how to get around those. No problems.

Nice video. Ive just bought a Creality k1c and started slicing with creality print 5.1. People have been telling me to use orca instead as they say its better? I find the interface of creality print a little easier for me and comparing print times creality print is always faster. what are your thoughts and preferences on the two programs?

I haven't found a way to use modifiers to change my layer height. I print parts that have a handle and a head. The head needs a 0.1 layer height, and I have to print the entire handle using a 0.1 layer height just because of 4 mm of the head. Can it be done? By the way, your tutorials are excellent. Thanks, they always help me.

Hi Bill, can you do a setting tutorial on infill? I just started using Creality 5.1 (just got the hang of cura) but now my nozzle scrapes through the infill, leaving nozzle "trenches", I did try playing around with Z hop but there are now on the filament profile z settings and on the infill😅

Using your math why did the z come out to 400. What was calculated differently

Thank you very much for your shared deep knowledge.

I haven't used my K1Max in 6 months as I've been so busy with other things. I see they're up to v5.1 now. I'm gonna watch all your new vids and dial in my printer again. Thanks Bill for your great work!

I don't have Pass one , nor do I have Pass 2 under my calibration menu..............

I really appreciate your videos. I really enjoy this hobby when things are going well. But, I really get upset and frustrated when prints fail without warning and with no explanation. I can always depend on your videos to help me through it.

So why do we scale the cube up again?

Bill, you are the best source for informations about the Creality print. Thank you.

Wow, I didn't know that my ender 3 Esteps/,mm is way off 5mm from what actually needs to be. Thank you for this simple yet useful calibration!

Great video, I really liked the different ways you showed to do the nut, I especially liked how you did the circle to get the chamfer on it, I hadn't seen that before! My biggest problem in 360 is that I don't use it enough to retain what I've learned! (and old brains!) I love the 3D printing, and am a subscriber to your channel. Thanks so much for sharing this with us!!!!!

Hi Bill, another interesting video nicely explained, thank you. Rounding down, I got a Max Flow Rate of 20.5, I have a Creality K, I'm slowly getting my head around the math lol. Thank you again for you taking time to make these terrific videos, with all the software updates and changes from time to time, it must feel a bit repetitive. Take care, from Perth Western Australia. Regards Gary.

Great video, thanks. Wondering if you have any experience with Orca slicer. Looking at these same issues when using Orca. If you do, any chance of putting together this same discussion using Orca?

When you said "when you're not sure which one to go with, go with the larger one", you went with the lower value. Bit confusing, eh.

Good video, thanks. How did you determine the scarf seam parameters that you used? Hard to believe you just randomly picked the values you used. Was there documentation that you referenced that gave you your starting parameter values? You also didn't cover any of the downsides to using scarf seams like increase material usage and print time. Would be really useful to understand those tradeoffs when trying to decide on whether to use scraf seams. Also what model features can benefit most from using this? Things like circular shapes, overhangs, angled sections, etc.. Would be good to understand how to evaluate an object to better understand what types of features it has that should prompt you to try scarf seams. And is there any correlation between the type of filament used (ie PLA vs PETG vs TPU vs ABS vs ASA, etc.) and the quality of the results you can expect?

Hi Bill. Did you know there's an update for Creality Print 5.1.4, it's 5.1.6, I just finished installing it, you don't loose all your settings. Regards Gary 🙂

before this video I couldnt even find the settings of retraction on the program thank you for the video

Ty bro

Thanks for making this it helped me out so much!

This is incredible. The simplicity of how you provided the information in a very clear and direct way. Congratulations on the well-formulated content. Thank you for your time and dedication. Keep up the good work!

Just an o servicing. When setting up the test, the last item is referring to a bed TEMPLATE, not bed temperature. The units are in mm3/s, not degrees, so it's printing at your standard filament temp.

Bill, @pushingplastic is it worth printing a speed tower, and have you made a video on how to use it on Creality 5 please?

How do I change the type of money I use for me it's stuck on yen??

Brilliant. Very helpful video. Thanks.

Thanks, good explanation

Im only ~3 months into 3d printing and finding you're videos very helpful , I've managed to get some real nice prints from my very cheap Ender 3 v3 se, thanks from a UK plastic pusher.

Thanks for the video. Where should you set the sliders? And what's the print time impacts to where you place the sliders? When you repeatably hit the SMOOTH button does that move the associated slider? Or does hitting the button just change the layer heights and show in the object diagram? Would be nice to know how much smoothing you've applied with a numerical value. Seems a little odd how the buttons & sliders don't necessarily seem linked.

gracias por el video saludos, muy buenos tips

Can you make a video on how to get the different style of support on the support setting

Nice one can you send the file for the spool holder please thank you

Awesome work man I’ve been following you for quite a bit and you left some awesome tips. Help my printing quality really good.

At some point, would you consider covering how to make a model water tight (like a vase that will retain water) using CP 5.1.xx and either an Ender 3 V3 (plus or other) ?? Also, if you know for sure, to explain what the repair model option in CP 5 really does. I find your explanations to be top notch. You don't assume that people should know everything. This is awesome! Thanks in advance.

You just solved my glossy print problem I noticed this weekend. Any joy on the underside of supported prints looking stringy?

In the "Avoid crossing walls" tooltip it says that leaving it at 0 disables it?

awesome, thank you. yet another helpful video :)

Ive been getting prints that look like it skips a line ive tried everything i dont know what the heck to do happened outta no where

Thanks!

Very useful content with great delivery. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Howdy pard'. So about six months ago you switched from Orca to Creality Print 5? Have you published a video saying why you've swapped ships? I mean absolutely no critique, just curious because I've heard conflicting 'things' regarding Creality Print 5...thanks.

The avoid crossing walls tip now makes TPU printing so much easier, thanks
