I’m not sure but I think he likes marvel…

[joiscara]

I’m going to get into 3D printing in the coming weeks, and I’m grateful there’s YouTubers like yourself guiding us noobs into the hobby.

[beachcomberbob]

I watch the world collapsing into madness on a daily basis, but I can always rely on you Frank. I can watch you and decompress, while learning something new that I hadn't thought of, even on a basic level like this.

[Allansworkshop]

Hello frank i just got an ender3 pro and I have a problem even after trying many different things filement is still not coming out almost as if it was jammed even when doing it manually non comes out if you think you could help me please let me know

[octoeight]

Legitimately one of the best video intros I’ve seen in a long time. Love your work, you’ve helped me build my first iron man helmets and will hopefully help me with the suit I’m making with your videos. Thanks for the inspiration!

[syshellykay]

You were a huge help to me. Found a worn extruder gear, something I hadn't even considered. Slapped on a new dual gear extruder I had sitting around and I'm back in business, thank you!

[bigdsmooth]

Hey Frank, just wanted to say thanks for this video. It's nice to have a summarized resource from a trusted and practical source

[oxm]

Thank you for this video and the time you have put into it. I have been having some issues with y axis skipping and never thought to check the belt tension. I am going to give that a go and cant wait for the results. Thank you!!!

[solenvega]

i been watching frank for 3 years since i got my first printer. and i love the part where he said your gonna make mistakes. i love that because its from those mistakes that allowed me learn to why and how to fix it. love this guy.

[MrRickle]

I got into 3D printing because of watching you. I’m still super new to it but I’m loving it.

[ultancatterson]

Hey Frank I don’t know If you will see this but you have inspired me to pick up my old Ender 3 pro and Gotten me to start printings Again. Right now I am printing a mk42 suit I’m nearly halfway done now and I want to thank you for inspiring people to do cool things like this keep doing what you are doing Frank your amazing.

[davidfarris]

This is perfect. I just got my first 3d printer a few days ago and it's already been a hell of a rollercoaster. First layer adhesion has been murderous.

[oldbeardedcajun]

Thank you for this video. I have learned a lot from your content and has helped my 3d printing so much. Please keep up the great content!!!

[franciscolozada]

Your videos are always so informative and honest. Your the reason I finally decided to get into 3d printing, will finally start the new year into the hobby thanks to the sv01 pro video review. Now I'm always looking forward to your content. Any advice on things one should do to upgrade/updates to do on the printers unless you have a video on it that I probably missed on it.

[pantro]

Thank you for making these videos, I'm a fairly new to the hobby and I've learned a lot, I'm getting my ENDER MAX NEO tomorrow. Cheers 🍻 from Arizona🌞🌵🦂

[vicentegamet]

i searched for more than 3 months and finally found someone that fixed my problems thank you

[kcfresh]

This vid came in clutch cuz I just got a sovol sv01 pro. I really love your vids and I am so happy to finally get a 3d printer.

Happy New Year Frank and Maya! Great video.

[MyHelmetStayedOn]

I'm finding that my pc4-m10 screws that hold the capricorn bowden tube in place for my cr10s v2 keep moving back and forth? Basically, the teeth inside the screws aren't clamping onto the tube? I've had to change them. Basically, every print. Any ideas?

[tulunurang]

Hello bro, I got a mismatched 3d print issue.
e.g, If I print a 10X10 square, it will come out as 13X13.
Tried many slicer but same results.
I'm using a generic MKS Tinybee based with Marlin 2.X.X firmware.
Any advise?
Thanks.
