What are some of the questions we answered this week?

So, what do you think of the anycubic Chiron printer?

My prints dont stick what do I do?

Question for you all what does it mean when I print one model it comes out very clean no layer lines but when I plant a different model I can see a layer lines all through it and it’s the same PLA?

I have an ender 3 v2 and added a bltouch with the smith3d firmware. When I run the bed visualizer in octoprint, it seems to come back with different measurements each time!

On my endstop. I thought it was crashing into the endstop. On the x gantry. But it turned out to be I had the belt too tight. It would not let the carriage go all the way to the endstop.

How to you level the middle of the bed my corners are perfect but the middle is way to close and there is no middle knob?

Why is my Cr-10 is not reading files sliced on a the new Cura?

Have either of you seen or tried the Creality camera? And do you know if it works with the Creality WiFi box?

 Just pre ordered OCULUS QUEST 2 VR Headset Kit that can CAST Media to my 72″TV. Just wondered if you could Recommend the best Casting Unit to Purchase?

Have you guys heard about the fact that printing from Octoprint will yield lower quality prints than printing directly from SD?

I just installed a micro swiss All Metal direct drive kit on a Ender 5 pro, Problem: Extruder is stripping the filament, and yes I did run the Gcode from Micro swiss to adjust the E-Steps.

What did we answer this week?

Upgraded my Creality Ender 3 Pro using BTT SKR Mini E3 V.12 board & the printer is silent now BUT the only noisy part is the fan. Can I do something about it?

I have done the test printing on the Ender 5 Pro and they come out fine but when printing from other files, it goes to the upper right corner (as the center).

I’m completely new to this flashing firmware thing. on an SKR mini e3 v1.2 do I only put the firmware.bin on the ad card?

I just started 3D printing and I have an Ender 3 and When I print, the filament globe up on the side of the nozzle and sometimes when it does come down, it won’t adhere to the bed. Help?

​Will I flash my bl touch and TFT35 at the same time or do each flash separately?

And so many more.
