--------Print Settings-----------
*These are the settings I used for my Creality Ender 3 V2 3D Printer with PLA. These settings are not going to work with every printer, or every PLA. Printers have different length bodin tubes, and PLA’s have different melting points. These may not work exactly for you, but should give you a good base to start with if you have a similar size printer. Good luck!

i just love how you bring the video like its like you are talking to someone in front of you one to one. learning a lot here thanks for the help!!!
This was such an incredibly helpful video. Thank you for the clear, accessible instructions! We had been struggling for two days to make a successful first print, and this video finally showed us everything we needed to know. We really appreciate it!
I'm not even 10 minutes into the video and I've already learned a lot! I don't own my Ender 3 v2 yet, but I'm trying to learn as much as I can until I can save enough to buy it. Thank you for this amazing video! You earned a sub!
This has to be one of the best videos on setting up the printer the first time. I have been looking at the brown box that mine is sitting in for months because all of the other videos scared me off, made me question my purchase.
Thank you very much for taking the time to document this process.
Thank you! I’m a newbie, spent all day putting the machine together and trying to troubleshoot. Your video drove it home.
Mate this is such a great post, from the basics straight through, 10/10 well done mate
@@Troy--McMillan what’s that?
Wow! I just stumble across your channel after acquiring a Creality Ender Pro 3. I am amazed at what you can do. As a former R/C model enthusiast I can appreciate how much 3D printing can offer. I can't wait to explore more of your channel. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for this video! This is the best walkthrough video I have ever seen in regards to this printer. My son saved up and got his very own and we put it together yesterday and tried to print but did not get the filament to stick to the plate. He had already seen your videos when he was researching the printers and kept talking about the glue stick. Today we tried the glue stick after cleaning the plate well with the alcohol and his first project is now successfully printing!
I dont know what to say except EXCELLENT for us who dont know nothing about 3d (Begginer, i just want to print airplanes and subs from thingverse and convert them to RC). After many days looking for something useful "how to" for begginers this is what i need, you answered most of my questions and the best thing is you explain just what i need -from stl file to print-. Thank You.
I am so happy I could help!! 😊
Brilliant stuff. I'm an RC Plane enthusiast and I've just ordered my first 3D printer. Your video was exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!
Thank you for your video. I've just bought a ender 3v2 myself. After bed leveling, i still couldn't get a smooth print and blamed the "weak springs" etc. You showed me that it's possible to get the best results even at stock with the right settings. Subscribed to you now :)
Thank you so much :) I'm so glad I could help! It is a great printer, with just a little tinkering it prints perfectly!
Same for me. Thanks
Please for me
Like others have stated, an incredible helpful and informative video! I watched the intro, then skipped to the belt adjustments and NO OTHER VIDEO I have seen so far talks about this. Thanks already man!!!!
I'm just getting into 3D printing and found your video super helpful and to the point with good visuals. Thanks for the good info. Thumbs up and subscribed.
Wow T. I just got a ender 3 pro and your tips really helped me to start out. Subbed.
Just received my Ender 3 V2 earlier today. You have been an immense help getting started.
I hope you have fun with it! I’m still researching to see which one I should opt for. If Ender brand or another.
Excellent video. I just bought an Ender 3 V2 Neo for my architectural design classes and I can't wait to start using it. Thanks a lot.
Alot of your older videos make more sense to me now thank you
I'm glad it helped!! Your advice, go back to basics 😉
Ordered my Ender 3 V2 yesterday, no experience with 3D printing at all. I am super excited to get started and build some cool stuff. This video helps a lot! Thanks.
Hey thx Troy for all that you do to help the less knowledgeable ppl stating out on this fantastic journey to creating art!
I don't usually comment on videos but I feel the need to thank you. I thought it would take me days to figure out how to put the 3D printer together, but this video made it take only an hour and a half.
Gday, thanks for explaining all this, im looking at getting my first 3d printer which will be the ender 3 v2, your video has been the best I’ve seen, thanks again mate, cheers
I'm so happy I could help!! Happy printing 😊
I'm in the process of learning, and purchasing, my first 3D printer. In the first 4 minutes of your video I've learned a few new things that no one else addressed. Thanks for sharing.
My man, thanks a lot! Just started printing. It’s very addicting!! Lol. New sub!
Thank you so much for this video! My son and I are getting into 3D printing and decided on this model. Your video was so detailed I even sent it to my Dad who is also an engineer. We were all very impressed and are so excited to start!
Very informative video, thanks for this! I just got a 2nd hand Ender 3, and this will certainly help me get started 👍 Cheers from France!
As a complete beginner to 3D printing I have to thank you a lot for this video! But I still don’t have a clue on the settings on Cura. Could you maybe make a separate video on the settings and what exactly they do? That would really help me a lot!
Crosslink and Maker's Muse are two very good people who have excellent videos on slicers and design programs.
you may have figured it out by now but the settings are in the description
@@badcontent2567 he wants to know what the setting do not just copy paste them.
No doubt me to . Best vid I've seen on this
Agreed. Complete beginner to filament printing as well and normally use Chitubox for my resin printing. There must be a setting for showing more items in Print Settings as I didn't have most of the ones mentioned.
Such a great video I hope you have more, that was very confidence inspiring .
Great video, I learned a lot. For the complete setup on an Ender 3 V2 Creality actually has a really good video. Last night I was able to get mine put together, leveled and printing pretty easily. Only thing they didnt make clear is to snug all four of the leveling handles before trying to level the bed
Very informative man. Thank you so much. Subscribed👍
i just got my first 3D printer and im so glad this is the first channel i find
Brilliant just looking at 3d printing for my model plane parts great combination
Great video just right for RC guys. A friend has just bought an Ender 3 and I'm sending him this video link. He's new to 3d printing so this will be invaluable to him. I think your eagle made him finally purchase one. Great channel.👍👍👍
Thank you SO much!! I hope it helps!
one of the best tutorials out! A+ loving this channel!
Thank you!!
I’m glad to find your channel, for Christmas my son gave me Ender 3 and it’s my first 3D printer. Your video gave me a good overview on what to expect in a quick, no-nonsense manner.
We’ll see how quickly I can learn to use this device to make stuff.
Thank you, you answered most of my questions. Well actually all of them to start.
First printer and roll of tpu arrives tomorrow. Perfect video, thank you. I'll be printing fpv quad parts. But wow, your plane parts are amazing. I'm keen on printing building one of your planes and popping a camera on one too.
You my friend are quickly becoming a 3D printing Channel has a side hustle. And I love it!
Thank you, I'm working on it 😉
That savage bobber is one awesome looking plane. I haven't had an interest in model planes since I was a kid and I think I just had that interest reignited. I'm saving this video.
Thank you so much for this video. This is our first printer and we are now printing because we watched this video
Interesting guide.
Thank you for listening to the suggestion and using the new microphone. Now your audio is flawless. It is much easier to hear it.
I'm glad it sounded better!! Thank you for letting me know :)
im getting into 3d printing to mostly make karambits and knifes like a butterfly and some other stuff and this was really informative!
Thanks so much for the video. Just got one for christmas and i was struggling but this video made it 100 times easier
I just set up my printer nd this video really REALLY made things clearer for me. I still need to learn the differences in the settings you were using but all in good time.
Thanks for the video! I just bought an Ender 3 V2 last week. Can't wait to jump into printing.
Fantastic! I have some cognitive issues as a result of a severe brain haemorrhage and I need a hobby that ‘taxes’ the brain. I think I have found it. Your delivery with explanations is first class, thank you so much, I’m very grateful. Subscribed and I intend watching your vlogs from the beginning. Kind regards
Also, I've been looking for a video that just does this very thing. Beginning to end without a lot of filler and review of Whatever item they're looking at. Thank you so much. My Sapphire plus came and it was bent all over to Smithereens like an elephant sat on the package. We're waiting for another one. My son and I are really looking forward to printing. I'm considering getting him a little Ender 3 so he has one as well. Great video.
Oh man, I am sorry to hear that! The Ender 3 would be a great supplement to the Sapphire, just a good side printer. I hope your next printer gets there soon and without damage.
@@TroyMcMillan thanks man. I just ordered one. And thanks for reaching out to your followers. You're doing a great job.
@@adamflight1 Thank you so much, I appreciate that!
@@TroyMcMillan Hello Troy will like to know with this printer can printed your airliner you design?
Just found your channel. Great video. You helped me decide which 3D printer to get. I have subscribed and look forward to your other videos.
Thank you for doing this video!!! Just getting started again and was needing step by step help!!!
Thank you for such a fantastically helpful video. I've just ordered my Ender 3, and looking forward to starting the hobby.
The more I'm watching these tutorial videos, the more I'm excited to get my first 3d printer!
If you’re not a teacher, I think you should be. You have a great talent for explaining things. Great video.
Thank you I appreciate it :)
Great video. Simple and straight to the point. Thank you.
This was incredibly helpful. You've helped me get my first print going!
I'm so happy I could help :)
Excellent no BS lets get it done video. Thank you. My machine isn’t here yet but I’ll be back to see the rest of your stuff.
Happy I could help :)
Troy, Thanks for your passion! Your videos have been extremely helpful. You have saved me hours of fine tuning my printer for 3D planes!!!
I am so glad I could help!!
@@TroyMcMillan- What is normal percent For X, Y and Z ?
Just bought this printer because I was tired of buy TPU parts for our 5" racing drones. Didn't realize it was going to be this challenging. Now I know why they charge so much for these parts. Thanks for the video, I am learning a lot.
Excellent quality content. Very thorough. I appreciate your expertise
just purchased thanks for the video!
Many thanks for sharing these advanced techniques!
I hope it helps! :)
I did Learn I lot from this Video ... Thanks for Sharing
Awsome job. New to 3d prinyou saved me alot of pain lol. Thank you very much for this video.
Great informative video. Thanks!
I bought an Ender 3 S1 Pro on special for $380.00, I was delighted to see it rated number 1 🥳
I was about to order one and this gave me a head up making this thanks 😁
Thank you so much for your videos. I didn’t think I could do this but now I am sure I can. I truly appreciate your time and video
Thank you!!!!!!! Very informative!
Thanks so much for the vid ! Really informative & to the point. Been thinking of getting the same printer as my first, you helped me decide to just go for it. Thanks again👍🏻
Extremely good teaching video. Thanks. Keep up the good work. :)
thanks so much! ive always wanted to get into 3d printing, but I thought it was super difficult, but now I know how to do it!
Thank you so much. You make the setup easily understandable. Can wait to see what your A320/1 will turn out like.
thank you, I am glad I can help! I'm excited for that plane too
Great video helped me a lot!
Thank you for making this video!
This is the video I needed! Thanks
Hope it helps!!
Wow!, thank you ! Very clear !
Thank You Troy, this was very informative, detailed and helpful video. There are a ton of printer settings and obviously you can't show them all but, is there a video or booklet where one could learn more about the Ender 3 Pro 3D printer settings; what they do in particular? I'm a home owner, well the wife is the owner I just take up space here, and I've got quite a long honey-do list. I'm working a set of hanging lights and I found one of the pieces I need to create it is not manufactured on its own so... I've printed 10 so far and each one has improved a bit but I can tell itsagonna take a long time to get it right; and at this rate I don't think I'll be around to see it.
looking at getting into this thanks for the great video, to the point and simple!
Your videos are just amazing! Thank you.
thank you very much! :)
I just ordered this. Gulp! I'm excited!
I actually go to 3-D printed yesterday from my Mum for Christmas I’m 12 years old, so I have no idea what I’m doing, but I just installed that thing because Ender the company that owns it recommends their website, but it hard to and I have no idea what I’m doing so this really helps thank you
Excellent tutorial on 3d printing. I'm glad you include your printer settings in the description, you were going a little too fast for me to keep up to the video. could you do a video explaining the different materials you use for different parts of the planes? could you also maybe explain the difference on the Eclipson plans what the catagories are about such as "A, C, A-LW, C-LW" thankyou so much for all that you do!
Great video, thanks for doing this.
It is an awesome printer! Thank you!
Thank you for the great video. Getting an Ender soon. Subscribed
Best guide on TH-cam. Thank you sir 🫡
Good clean video and editing! Thanks!
Bro I enjoyed your video helped me as a beginner
thank you so much, this helped me so much in setting up my ender 3 v2
So happy to help :)
Thanks, really nice guide for me as a complete beginner. cheers
Hey thanks man I learned a lot!
Very helpful thankyou.
Great video and good work, thank you 👍
I hope it helps :)
Awesome video. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this video ☺️
Great video - we are having trouble with our unit's bed being way too high, even after autohome. You make this thing look easy, but it has been nothing but headaches for us. Hard to feed the filament, no idea how to get things reset, or even what a correct "home" position looks like. Any help you can provide is appreciated.
Thanks so much ive just got one and now i know how to properly ise it thanks alot
Thank you I'm new to 3d printing
Great video; thanks for posting. New subscriber.
Very interesting video. Looking into buying a 3D printer and see what I can do with it. Thank you very much. By the way, I subscribed.
Awesome. I was choosing between Bambu p1s and p1p Are these considered good 3d printers.. which one would you recommend? and if not one of them, then which other brand. also I ll be using it mainly for rc airplanes, do I need the ams ? Thanks
What a great explainer video. Just what I've been looking for - thank you. Subscribed!
