I just got my Creality Ender 3 V3 SE today on March 28 , 2024 .. it was my birthday gift to myself.. after watching Barnacules 3d printing from back in the days , it was finally time to jump on board ... and this video was a great introduction in what to look for when starting out ... 🙏
@@eytanosss I’m ashamed to admit this .. but it’s still in the box 😭😭😭😭 but with that said, the only thing I was looking into doing is adding a filament runout censor and few others that come to mind when looking at several videos on this printer … but , I say it’s a safe bet getting this printer as your first 3d printer 🖨️ but what do I know , mine is still in the box 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️lol
this model is my first printer that I will have ever even touched. this video helped me prepare for what to expect when my printer arrives tomorrow. I can't wait to get started in this hobby. thank you for this series.
My wife has bought me this model printer for my 75th birthday (on this coming Sunday), so I have been checking out instruction videos for new 3d modellers. This is the best one I have found, and it is easy to follow, even for a novice like me. A big thank you from me.
Just picked up and SE as my first 3D printer. Very thorough walk through that helped me unravel some of the mystery and fear behind 3D printers. Thanks for the great video, subbed!
This was so helpful! The directions on the manual do not talk about tightening the print bed, so my set up was stuck. Following your instructions helped me finish up the setup! Thanks!!!
I'm really amazed that Creailty expected me to understand their 4 page instructions included with the printer. Thanks for the video my man. I wish Creailty would just make their own videos on how to assemble and set up their machines. Maybe one day!
Hey Tom 🙂 Just got one of these for the family. Your content is INCREDIBLY helpful! All the little tips you get from lots of experience. Thank you so much for sharing!
I have had my Creatly Ender 3 V3 SE since December 2023 and have printed around 10 kg of filament so far. I previously had an Ender 3 V1 with a 4.2.2 mainboard for years, but it's a huge jump to the SE. I've now moved away from super-fast printing and now print rather slowly with the SE, even though much more would be possible. So far I haven't had any problems, the only thing that was a problem at the beginning is the fact that there were no suitable settings in Cura. But with the V2 settings it worked. I've only had one problem to date, I had small lumps and threads that I could never completely get rid of. Thanks to one of your videos, I changed the values in the firmware and was totally surprised by the result. Mechanically I have not yet been disappointed with Creatly. The double-sided F spindle on the Z axis is one of the best changes compared to my old V1. I almost forgot. I had to balance my print bed. The car level is really great, but with a difference of 0.9 mm between the back and the front I had to intervene. I placed 0.1 mm washers under the screws until it fit. Now I no longer have any deviation under the screws, only a slight curvature of 0.03 mm in the middle of the print bed, but I can live with that 🙂
Amazing explanation! You really alleviated the anxiety I’ve been having over unboxing the printer. Thank you for your generosity in sharing those extra tips, in addition to the detailed assembly instructions. Not to mention the extra explanation of the offset nuts.
I was hesitant to start the assembly of my new Ender V3 SE as the quick guide is okay as far as it goes, but this video was exactly the kind of help a plodder like me needed. Thank you so much for the effort to put produce and publish this, and I have subscribed and will take in more of your videos.
I also just got mine and printed out of the box. Came out perfect! And the included filament was even more than enough - used it to print a few camera parts and still have some to spare, still no calibration.
This video made assembly of my first 3D printer, a gift for my 13yo done in secret squirrel mode, a breeeze. Fantastic content for newbies. Keep ‘em coming!
I just bought one of these printers (I'm a total Noob). It arrives tomorrow, so I'm glad I ran across your video that showed the detail I need to set it up properly. Thanks!
this is my first time trying a 3d printer. your video was very helpful getting it put together. as far as the test print, i did not follow that . im not sure where to find that program. i have not installed the flash drive to see if there was any preloaded test prints. again i found this video very useful. thank you. i will follow youe tutorials
So glad someone mentioned the Voltage in the back. It's been awhile since I've set up a 3D Printer so when I got this it completely slipped my mind to change that and I was so confused for like 10min before realizing it lmao. I've had my V3 SE for about 2 weeks now but I've been watching videos on it and no one has ever mentioned that Voltage switch lmao. New 3D Printer owners see them and won't know.
Wanted to drop by and give you a huge thanks! Concise, straight forward, extra information/tips, and great close-up shots when they're important. Very happy this was the first video I found once I got home with my printer. Thanks again! ✌
This printer was by far the easiest to assemble and get going, from unboxing to printing a test, after doing calibration and levelling. 10 min, all the shenanigans included. The only thing I couldn't do was to change the nozzle (I hate brass), because it hadn't arrived. Creality really did a fine job on this one.
Thanks for the tips on the eccentric nut! My first printer was a V2 I bought during lockdown. Just got the V3 SE and it's looking like a great cheap upgrade. Already impressed with how much faster it runs on just the stock settings!
This video convinced me to buy an Ender-3 V3 SE as my second printer (after two years of using a Monoprice MP Select Mini V2, which works great but has a relatively small print bed). I followed this video during the setup of the new printer, and all went well. Thanks.
I just got this printer and it worked well for about 4 prints. Started breaking prints from the plate about an hour to an hour and a half through. I had to touch every srew that I didn't touch during assembly as almost every one was lose. Just an FYI, it will shift on you if you don't make sure everything is tightened. I've also discovered that if you turn your print speed down to 80-85, it doesn't jerk at high speed so much.
Yes it puts z offset little to cloase i rased it by 0.03 and that worked perfectly. And I recomend to rase it just a bit because petg will live marks in bead so just lift it a bit.
Your video saved my bacon today. I couldn't figure out why my extruder cable was so close to my spool feed. I rewatched again and realized I had looped the cable over top of the gantry. D'Oh. I'm pretty happy to have caught that before powering it up the first time. Thanks for posting such a detailed instructional clip!
Awesome. We're not newbies, but we were Ender newbies in 2020, and used your equivalent setup video then to set up our current Ender 3 Pro, which has just been updated to a V3 SE today - watching carefully, and we'll open the box soon. I might add that I think it was the tips you gave us 4 years back that made our Ender 3 perform basically perfectly over the past 4 years. Damn Bowden tubes though! :)
Agreed. I'm glad I went through the pain of struggling with the E3V2 though. Taught me a lot about 3D printing, and machine calibration in general. But a 'do it for you' device is nice to reduce the headaches.
Just ordered one, I will have this video on while I put it together. Thank you so much for this, total newbie to 3D printing so this video is so helpful. Subscribed 👍🏻
I received my Ender 3 V3 SE yesterday. Assembly was easy and fast. I turned it on and after selecting English as my preferred language, it automatically went into leveling without me having to select it. Leveling was long, but straight forward. I did my first print on the magnetic removable print bed. I don't like that base. I had great difficulty removing my print, and when it did come off, the underside of my print was very very rough, like 80 grit sandpaper. I have an Ender 3 V2 which came with a tempered glass bed and I love that thing so much. I decided to buy the glass bed for the new V3 SE, but had issues installing it. The clips I use on the V2 does not fit on the V3 SE. There is a additional black layer on top of the metal heating base and that makes it too thick for the clips to fit properly. I bought some binder clips at an office supply store to hold the glass bed on, but that makes the leveling procedure difficult, the binder clips interfere with the hot end as it moves across the bed. Bought some smaller 19mm binder clips, which I hope will work.
I already had mine set up before this video turned up on my feed but I'll make a few adjustments based on what's in here. Your OG video for the V2 was an absolute godsend so when i saw this was here, it was essential viewing. One thing i did with mine was to keep the large top piece from the packing foam and cut a sheet of OSB to the same size (plywood would be better but this is what i had laying around) - I put the foam down first then the wood then sat the printer on top and it's reduced printer noise to a noticeable degree. Not that it was super loud to begin with! Absolutely brilliant printer so far, looking forward to Prusa Slicer having a profile added for it soon, not a fan of the creality software. Ill check out your Cura profile though!
Right? The creality slicer is painful after using PrusaSlicer for a year. I wonder if the E3V3 will work with V2 settings? I assume it's the same version of Marlin (legacy vs. V2)
@@JoeBleeps Yeah. Hope it's not too much longer. Given the popularity of this printer, I'm sure they'll release a profile for it soon (I'm surprised it took this long). Thanks for the video!
Always appreciate your assembly videos! I've been recommending the v3 SE to people who want to get into 3D printing and pointing them to this video for the set up.
Although the instructions provided with the printer were clear enough i thought i would watch a video of the assembly to make extra sure i didnt make any silly mistakes. So glad i did, the extra details here really made the process an easy one fornthis complete 3d printing newbie. Subscribed
TI've been looking for an affordable medium sized 3D printer locally since the pandemic started, but was confused by the various models of the Ender 3. However this one looks to be exactly what I need to replace my old printers from my time in Australia. And it won't break the bank, even given the conversion to Pacific Pesos
the OG ender 3 video helped me and it is still running for 5 years, intermittently used it, probably dying extruder driver on the board but that's it. I felt old for missing out any new improvements money can buy the past 5 years, but they are only incremental to my uses so I didn't. everything is so automated and streamlined now too, except that eccentric nut that still staying the same. These machines might be digital and such, but in terms of common sense in the finer zone, they felt analog and hands-on , being in tropics the bed never warped too, so auto bed leveling is useless for users with finer senses, specially being helped with your video back then where the springs were almost fully compressed by modified default(lowering the Z endstop) :)
Hopefully my printer arrives tomorrow. I will be referring to your video during assembly every step of the way. Great tips and advice. Great video. You have a new subscriber.
Thanks for the video. I just got my Ender 3 V3 SE (160 before tax thx to an ebay offer by Creality). I am surprised that their instructions don't talk about voltage switch except in a small box. In my case, I had to tighten the X axis nuts as the axis was wobbly. Am doing a Z-axis offset calibration as we speak.
Holy cats! That's amazing--it's almost a consumer product, like a toaster or a food processor! My E-3 Pro was more like a homebrew kit than a turnkey solution. 😅 Mind you, now mine's got linear rails, independent Z-axes, and all sorts of foolishness! Dunno how customizable these newer machines are--though it seems there's less to "fix!"
Great tips on adjusting the roller wheels! 4:50 I got told in another video, that roller wheels was to tight from the factory. (But no instruction how to calibrate them) I noticed after just 3 prints, that the wheels have just been chewing away leaving lots of platic dust behind Now it is running like a dream! :)
I just got mine today may 14, 2024 I e had the ender 3 pro for a year every upgrade known to man my original main board went after not even a year. Dual z axis with belt mod, dual gear extruder, glass bed, upgraded springs then silicone spacers, anti backlash nuts for the z axis rods. Both tensioners on x and y. Upgraded bed carriage stronger wheels new standard wheels. Rebuilt from top to bottom and very few good printd I have a full cardboard box of failed week prints. I've tried every slicer and settings nothing helped. I've leveled the bed every way possible new eccentric nuts spacers you make it. So I'm hopeful that my new printer will not be the same issue or my wife will go through the roof. I've spent probably enough on my ender 3 pro to buy a second ender 3 pro lol
@@tomyeah the Bambu is the superior machine and produces the best prints I have ever gotten on any machine. I am currently switching my entire business over to A1/A1Minis from Enders.
Very well done video, I have been watching your video's for years, you helped me set up my first ender years ago. Just got this new one and excited for what all it has. Thanks
Great video. I like all the adjustments. We had already set ours up and done a few prints but I think I may go back and do that 30 minutes of adjustments that you talked about. One thing I’d love to see a video on is how to download a print online and run it through the slicer and set up all the settings and increase the speed of the print and things like that. We are just kind of struggling to find what the best method is. There’s so many options on the free websites for ways to download the files. Like cloud, reality, slicer upload or just straight up download the file and then do we have to export it or can I just drag it over into the SD file. There’s just so much options it’s kind of overwhelming.
Very informative video. My son and daughter have given me an Ender 3 v3 se for my 70th birthday and I'm looking forward to 3ď printing as a new hobby.
Also in my 70's and yesterday Santa brought me the same printer. I downloaded a model of the Eiffel Tower and a model of the Klein Bottle!!!

So How so you die the Auto z Offset in Klipper Edith mainsail@@Tombof3DPrintedHorrors
How do you do Auto z Offset in Klipper
V2 was a fun learning experience but I think this will add a lot less stress to the hobby.
Agreed 100%!
I agree. Replaced my V2 with this and life is less stressful!
Every year that goes by, 3d printers get closer to just being another pc item in the store that anyone can get and use.
Maybe but not this one. None of the feature like the z-offset work ! You still have to do it manually
They pretty much are at this point, easier to assemble than a small Lego set
@@BongWeaslemy z offset works great.
@@BongWeaslemy auto z works perfectly.
Thankfully they're not made by Epson where the filament costs loads and it eventually just conks out for no adequate reason

My Ender 3 V2 is still going strong thanks to your set up videos. This looks like a great value addition to my print farm. Thanks!
I am really happy with this printer. So far my only complaint is no 3rd party nozzles available yet.
just orderd mine for only 160 bucks, so excited
Holy cats! That's amazing--it's almost a consumer product, like a toaster or a food processor! My E-3 Pro was more like a homebrew kit than a turnkey solution. 😅
Mind you, now mine's got linear rails, independent Z-axes, and all sorts of foolishness! Dunno how customizable these newer machines are--though it seems there's less to "fix!"
Great tips on adjusting the roller wheels! 4:50
I got told in another video, that roller wheels was to tight from the factory. (But no instruction how to calibrate them)
I noticed after just 3 prints, that the wheels have just been chewing away leaving lots of platic dust behind
Now it is running like a dream! :)
My first 3D printer. Very instructional and helpful well done video. Thank you!
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I used it to set my new unit up. Nicely done!!!
Folks NOTE: 14:50 that the cable goes BETWEEN the top bar and the bar holding the extruder nozzle thingy, not OVER it.
Thank you very much for a noobie just about to start out in the 3D printing world and this channel was recommended by a friend
Just bought one last night and I’ll be getting it Saturday
Can't wait to get mine and set it up!
Thanks, greatly appreciated for the detailed video how to setup the printer.
I just got mine today may 14, 2024 I e had the ender 3 pro for a year every upgrade known to man my original main board went after not even a year. Dual z axis with belt mod, dual gear extruder, glass bed, upgraded springs then silicone spacers, anti backlash nuts for the z axis rods. Both tensioners on x and y. Upgraded bed carriage stronger wheels new standard wheels. Rebuilt from top to bottom and very few good printd I have a full cardboard box of failed week prints. I've tried every slicer and settings nothing helped. I've leveled the bed every way possible new eccentric nuts spacers you make it. So I'm hopeful that my new printer will not be the same issue or my wife will go through the roof. I've spent probably enough on my ender 3 pro to buy a second ender 3 pro lol
You've no idea how helpful this has been! Thank you ever so much, friend! 😊
Hey man, I just got my V3 SE in and you're doing me wonders with the setup
Thank you so much sir, your video helped me assemble the machine. Thank you from South Africa
I can’t wait to get this for Christmas. I’m losing my mind waiting
thank you i have been saving up for a while and am going to get this and want to make sure i use it to its full potential 🙏
You might want to look at a Bambu Lab A1 or A1 Mini instead, they are much better machines.
@@Tombof3DPrintedHorrors im trying to decide between ender 3 v3 ke or bambu lab a1 mini but im not sure
@@tomyeah the Bambu is the superior machine and produces the best prints I have ever gotten on any machine. I am currently switching my entire business over to A1/A1Minis from Enders.
@@Tombof3DPrintedHorrors thank you very much
Thanks. Just set mine up, excited!
Very well done video, I have been watching your video's for years, you helped me set up my first ender years ago. Just got this new one and excited for what all it has. Thanks
I like this video. As a newbee, this is essential information. Thanks for sharing 👍
Great video, thanks for sharing all the details to help with getting my new printer all setup!
thank you for all the tips and videos for SE
Awesome videos man great explanation of how to get it up and running 👍🇦🇺
Thanks!
I just assembled it and it says nozzle temp too low
lovely man, that makes you special. Absolute guide even for noobs.
Great video. I like all the adjustments. We had already set ours up and done a few prints but I think I may go back and do that 30 minutes of adjustments that you talked about. One thing I’d love to see a video on is how to download a print online and run it through the slicer and set up all the settings and increase the speed of the print and things like that. We are just kind of struggling to find what the best method is. There’s so many options on the free websites for ways to download the files. Like cloud, reality, slicer upload or just straight up download the file and then do we have to export it or can I just drag it over into the SD file. There’s just so much options it’s kind of overwhelming.
