RFID for CFS is an Android App that allows you to create Creality K2 Plus and CFS compatible RFID tags for all your spools of filaments - so the RFID functionality is no longer limited to just Creality filament! Thank you testers for helping me get it to this point!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lot38designs.cfsrfid

You need Mifare Classic 1k tags - something like this: https://www.amazon.com/BABIQT-Sticker-Classic-Self-Adhesive-Stickers/dp/B0BZRS35CT

Currently only Creality and Generic brands are available in the CFS and K2 Plus, so for now those are the only brands available in the app. We are working on a filament database that will allow you to select your filament brands and load the ones you use to Creality Print, the K2, the CFS, and this App.

For non-android users, I am working with the OpenSpool team to include Creality RFID Read and Write support into their project - so follow OpenSpool for updates on that. You will need to order a Wemos D1 Mini s3 and a PN532 RFID reader. https://github.com/spuder/openspool/

Some tips:

  • You want two tags per spool, one on either side. These tags should have all the same data.
  • Batch, Serial number, and Supplier should be randomized between spools, and the random button does that for you.
  • There are 3 color pickers:
    • The Creality one which should mostly match the color picker on the printer (let me know if any colors don't exactly match).
    • A basic color picker (below the Creality one) which has better primary colors than the Creality one. This one will probably be updated again later.
    • The third color picker appears when you check Advanced mode and is a full color wheel.
  • If you want to match colors, it's probably easiest to read a tag from another spool and then randomize the batch/serial/supplier.
  • When you finish a spool, you can reuse your tags - don't throw them away!
  • It will only read unencrypted tags, not official ones from Creality that come on their spools.
  • If you want the CFS to automatically switch filaments when one runs out, you just need to make sure the color and type matches on the RFID tags on both spools.

Anyone have any experience with Sulapac Filament?

Looking for something that isn’t plastic based. Seems interesting!

Man I love my new p1s this ender is problem after problem.

Anyone know what could have caused this enormous layer shift looking thing?

I am at a loss.

It's a stock ender 3 btw

Best free CAD? (zerobytes.monster)

I just got my 3D printer and am trying to get into making things through a CAD. I tried tinkercad and had fun with it, but would like to explore other free options (or at least ones that won’t break the bank). I bet this question has been asked a lot, so I’m sorry for bothering. I’ve just looked in a bunch of places and can’t seem to find an answer. Any answer is appreciated! Thank you!

I want to print PETG indoors, but just exhausting the air outside is pulling too much cold air into the enclosure, and causing layer adhesion issues.

Hi everyone, I'm currently having a hard time trying to fix an issue...

When I'm printing big flat surfaces like the one on the pictures, my first layer doesn't look good as you will see...

https://preview.redd.it/50e6youj7m9e1.jpg?width=742&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d5154456e15cb4ac4da19dcdefdafd464ec1c8b7

My printer is an Elegoo Neptune 4 Plus (with latest firmware) and I'm using Orca Slicer 2.2.0, I'm using Elegoo black PLA+ for this example.

Temperatures are 210°C for the nozzle, 65°C for the bed.

What I tried so far is to do the Z-level procedure many times with both thickness gauge (0.1mm) and paper technique with hot bed. I didn't notice any improvements (I started from what I think is the good position then tried +/- 0.02mm with a step of 0.01mm).

I also did the screw tilt adjust procedure a couple of times then printer's auto bed leveling, my bed looks pretty flat in my opinion:

https://preview.redd.it/6ia9i7tp8m9e1.png?width=1574&format=png&auto=webp&s=f21f4d79c4e734f5661629724381093df5cc358d

I would say it's more an "aesthetic" issue as my prints are more than fine in the end + it doesn't really appear on small prints but I'm a bit fussy and trying to fix this drives me a bit mad.

What parameters can I tune to improve that?

Thank you for your help!

Looking to pay for a few Patreon pages. Would be awesome to find someone that was geared towards hunting items as well as someone that designed little fidget toys for the kids. Suggestions?

Just got my 3d printer. Based on fumes and whatnot, should I set it up in the office or the garage? Plan on printing mostly in PLA+
