Link doesn’t work 😞
It is using unicorn nozzles, yes, but I didn’t know that until I needed to replace them. Thankfully, I was still within the return window for the $40 set I bought just in case. But shouldn’t I be able to tell which parts I need before they get here? How do I know what to buy going forward? What if I get something incompatible and can’t return it?
- Comment on Creality K1 woes 16 hours ago:
You would think that would be the solution, but no - printer registers itself as a K1, no C or Max or anything else. That’s why I’m so confused.
Nozzles: a.co/d/aYVIVGY Hotend: a.co/d/1yqFogq
Neither of these work with my machine.

I’m just saying, it’s not like I’m buying 3rd party parts. These are direct from Creality.

They’re Creality though?

I was looking at an engraving kit, actually. And I really don’t want to do resin, I live in a small apartment. I’d have to put it outside 😂
- Comment on Selling my old printer, looking for feedback 1 week ago:
No one here uses Craiglist, sadly. I definitely don’t have Facebook. Kijiji is where I put it. I have had really good luck there.
- Comment on Selling my old printer, looking for feedback 1 week ago:
I don’t know what any of that means, but yeah, the K1 is a billion times better.
- Comment on Selling my old printer, looking for feedback 1 week ago:
Local listings are between $150 for stock, and $200 with upgrades. I think I’ll just donate it and save myself the hassle.
- Comment on Selling my old printer, looking for feedback 1 week ago:
I thought of that first, actually. I really should just donate it.
- Comment on Selling my old printer, looking for feedback 1 week ago:
Really? There are a bunch of these on Kijiji here for what I’m asking. I’d buy a resin printer for $100 CAD if I had a garage, but I see your point for sure.

- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 4 weeks ago:
I got Jellyfin set up and available for streaming in less than two hours. Plex kept demanding that my friend buy a pass to download something, so I was like, nah. Jellyfin works flawlessly and is (in my opinion) a far superior option. I constantly had issues with Plex.

Oh, and I’ll try this, thank you.
- Comment on Filament won't adhere? 2 months ago:
Weirdly, it worked no problem for a few days before it just didn’t anymore. Maybe I’ll try drying it again.
- Comment on Filament won't adhere? 2 months ago:
I guess that’s why it was on super sale then… oof. Thank you!

I definitely wash the bed correctly. I’m new but I know that much 😄
- Comment on Filament won't adhere? 2 months ago:
A little Windex for the first round, and then Dawn dish soap and warm water. I always use paper towels.

I’m going to have a lot of fun with this information. I’m one of those weirdos that makes the printer itself part of the hobby. Thank you!
- Comment on Choosing my first printer is driving me mad. 3 months ago:
I just got my first printer too. Some dude was selling an Ender 3 v2 in a junk shop for $30. I bought it, tinkered with it for a bit, spent $100 on bits for it, and it’s going like a champ now. New, it would have cost me $450. It took me like 2 weeks and a lot of input from this community, but I’m confident with it now. I highly recommend the printer, even for a total newb. Cura, TinkerCAD, and Blender are all free, and I’m basically just having a blast. Stay away from Bambu - even new to the game, I know that much. Good luck!

Wall mount for a Switch, you say?
- Comment on Ender 3 v2 and new to 3D printing 4 months ago:
Oh, absolutely lol I have my first print going now and I’m not doing anything to it that I don’t have to do… yet. It took me most of the day to figure out my firmware wasn’t functioning.
I had to replace the hot end because the tube was jammed and I couldn’t get the filament out. And I had to buy a screen because I’ll be damned if I’m plugging a random piece of hardware into my PC hahaha
- Comment on Ender 3 v2 and new to 3D printing 4 months ago:
Wow, thank you! It’s currently auto leveling but I get the feeling from what you wrote that I should have done way more manual leveling first. Oop.
- Comment on Ender 3 v2 and new to 3D printing 4 months ago:
I haven’t printed anything yet. Just did the hotend replacement and my bed is apparently overheating now. Wheeee.
- Comment on Ender 3 v2 and new to 3D printing 4 months ago:
I’m going to have to learn more before this all makes sense to me lol

I will look into this, thank you!
