Thank you for this! The voltage switch-you can’t see and I expected an actual switch. Mine came with an American cord but was set to European voltage. Added in there were exactly ZERO instructions on how to “thread” the machine. Your video was super helpful for this first time 3D printer-thank you!!
You're welcome! Glad it helped. Good luck on your new hobby. It's addictive. 😁
I couldn't focus on anything in the video because of how much I was staring at your hair, it's absolutely beautiful haha
Lol, thanks.
Nice video. Love the format.
Thank you!
very infomative thanks alot
just bought a S1 pro and this video made it very easy
You're welcome!
Great video helped a TON with my new printer
Thanks! Glad it helped. Thanks for subscribing too!
Ordered one at a great price as a sidekick to my K1 Max. Great instruction video thanks.
You're welcome!
Thank you so very much. I followed step by step and I' m all set. Had I just gone with the instructions.... nah. What a mess!😀
Glad it helped!
This was a really helpful setup tutorial! I was having trouble starting a print and it turns out I had the power switch on the wrong voltage (they should include that step in the setup instructions)
Glad to hear it helped! I have a couple other videos specifically for the S1 Pro and more to come so subscribe so you don't miss them.
Really helpful, thanks for sharing
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I wonder you only have 50 subscribers, the video quality and editing is absolutely amazing and look so professional.. best wishes for future. I am using ender 3 since 5 years, and now I am thinking to go with s1 pro. Will it be worth upgrading ?
I am not gonna replace my old ender 3, but I'm tired of leveling, and filament breaking problems. Although I'm happy with the printer.. but S1 pro has much better features..
What do you suggest ?
S1 pro or any other printer in the same price bracket..?
Thanks! I'm hoping the subs are just getting started. I've got 51 subs now! Thanks!
For the printer. I really like my S1 Pro. I have had to replace the thermsistor already but it was $15. It was dripping in and out. The leveling is really nice. I added gcode to auto level before every print. I would buy it again if I didn't have one. Would like to have multiple heads but that's more expensive. If you are having filament breaking issues you may want to look at how your storing it. Humidity can make it brittle and cause bubbles and stringing.
I would go with the new Ender 3 V3 SE, it's only around £200/$200 and has most of the features of this S1 Pro plus auto Z offset.
i would go with a sovel SV07 runs klipper out of the box with insane printing speeds and is much cheaper then an s1 pro.
Mine just came, pretty excited thanks bro
Nice! Enjoy.
How's the new 3D printer working out. Printing anything fun?
@@dandesigns3d Sadly, I had big issues printing larger prints which used a lot of the bed. So I sent it back while I could I think it was a software issue with the auto bed levelling. Itd not lay down the first few layers right and then the nozzle would start hitting. Theres lots on the internet about it, apparently updating the firmware is pretty risky.
Spent hours trying to get it to work. Was a nice machine and the quality of the smaller prints was very nice.
That's a bummer. I hope you find a printer that works for you. When printing large prints the Z offset and cleaning your bed prior to starting become very important. I've also heard of some people having trouble with firmware updates also. Actually, first layer adhesion and firmware update process are two videos on my short list.
@@dandesigns3d Might try again in the future, I saw you recommend another model to someone. What other videos have you got up and coming?
Awesome video!! Thank you. This is my first 3D printer. I need to build parts for a prototype I'm creating and can no longer jerry/cannibalize from other things/parts for this particular project. I'm totally new to 3D printing. The instructions that came with the unit left A LOT to be desired. This video cut down my figuring-it-out time by a 1/3. Thankyou so much Eric Bana (kidding :P) Liked and subscribed.
Ha ha, that's the first time I've heard that one. Thanks for subscribing. Much more to come. What design software do you use?
Thank you :)
I've noticed that during putting 20mm through the nozzle, my filament is coming out significantly slower than yours, any advice?
I would think it should be close to the same as mine. What material and nozzle temp are you using?
@dandesigns3d for some reason, it fixed itself after I redid the levelling. Very strange
Can you show newbs like me how/where to get blueprints and how to transfer them to the printer, please?
You can search for stl files and find a bunch. Thingiverse and myminifactory are a couple sites to check out. Then you need to use a slicer to get them ready for your printer. I do have this video planned but it will be a bit before I get to it. So I hope this helps.
Hi there just got the same printer yesterday ender s1 pro watched your video good job 👍 any advice going to set it up this weekend thanks can’t wait dated today 21 feb wed
My main bit of advice is to subscribe to my channel. 😁 Also, check out the bed leveling video on my channel. czcams.com/video/U7cTvLpXL6U/video.htmlsi=XTORqzVrnt6D4IQm but most of all just have fun and experiment.
Should I put the PLA in before it starts heating or once it’s done heating?
It has to be hot before you can load the PLA because it has to melt it to allow you to push it through and purge the last material.
@@dandesigns3d Oh okay. Thank you!
Hi Dan.
Could you tell me what temperatures you used?
When I level the bed I just hit Preheat PLA. So that is 200deg nozzle and 60deg bed temp. That is what I print PLA at too.
Hello I am new to 3-D printing and got this as my first printer for my birthday. Followed the steps and when I got to turning it on, it automatically goes to language and I click the back arrow and it’s asking me to select the tool header type, and the options are FDM or laser, I don’t know which one to pick.
You choose FDM for printing. Laser is for the laser engraving attachment that is available. The good news is that means you have newer firmware. The old firmware didn't ask that. Enjoy!
@@dandesigns3d thank you that’s good to know if I were to get the laser attachment in the future would I be able to switch back-and-forth from printing and lasering?
Yeah, it's in the Settings - Advanced menu (I believe). You can switch back and forth. I don't have the laser. I plan on getting a stand alone laser soon.
why is it that every setup video i see of this printer the led light is already attached. but mine came detached with instructions on how to attach it? it also came with the wrong size bolts for attaching it as mine are a little too long. i am having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to tuck the wires for it properly. does anyone have any good pics or suggestions on how this is run.
Mine came pre-assembled. Here are some pictures of how the wire is routed. dandesigns3d.com/s1-pro-light-wire-routing/ Hope this helps!
Your suppised to heat the bed and nozel brfire you level it
I always do because the heating and cooling of the bed causes expansion and contraction. This way it is in the state it will be when printing.
Help me!, everytime i press "pre heat pla" it goes to the left turns off and on again and doesnt do anything.
Does it make a grinding noise when gets to the left? Or just turn off?
Just got this printer and every time it starts to print it gets unstuck from the hotbed.
Try wiping the bed with rubbing alcohol before each print. Level your bed. You should also make sure your z offset is set properly.
It would be good if you could inform your viewers that this printer does not recognise folders on the SD card, I finally got Creality to admit today that this is correct. their reply is below:
If you put the folder in the memory card, the display will not recognize it, please do not put the folder into the memory card, and the print file should be placed in the root directory of the memory card.
If placed in a folder, it may be misrecognized (Their spelling not mine).
So there you have it, they screwed up the software, which is effectively a downgrade on this machine!
I haven't noticed this one. But I did notice that if you put too many files on the SD card they just stop showing up. Maybe I'll do a video of common bugs and how to work around. Do you have any others?
Hi Dan, sorry to change my 'thumbs up' to a 'thumb down', but after watching your video and following the steps, my plate got damaged and nozzle broke. It seems that after the leveling you show, you need to set the z-axis zero point. You didn't tell in the video and went from auto-leveling straight to printing. Can you put this in the video to 'protect' other newbies like me?
Hey willrooy. Sorry to hear that happened to you. You shouldn't have to reset the z-offset after leveling. The step at 13:50 is setting the z-offset. I have heard of others in forums having issues with z-offset changing on them when it shouldn't. You might want to contact support because I think there is something wrong with your printer.
@@dandesigns3d Hi Dan, yes. After I wrote my comment here I watched some other videos (also the one from Creality) and there is no extra step after the auto-leveling. Thats when I decided to write to Creality support and the company were I bought it from. Maybe they can help. So back to
'thumbs up' for you 🙂
