1. All the info needed as a complete beginner
2. There is energy with which the presenter presents in the video
3. Every thing can be followed along well. All the options are shown clearly.

This is what a perfect demonstration is! Thank you. You earned a subscriber. Loved the energy. Made me stay focused!

I am an absolute beginner to 3D printing and this is just about the best video on Youtube explaining these features - well explained without rushing. Thank you

[RobertArmstrong-xmzg]

Your videos are making things far less confusing. Thank you

[LegoYodaVr]

[ralslombert]

after one year of buying my 3d printer, finally found a video that will make me open the box and start printing stuff - great vid!

I knew nothing about 3D printing this morning. Thanks for getting me started.

I ordered my first 3D printer, an Ender 3 S1 Pro, and won't get it until next week. In the mean time I downloaded the manual and the slicer software. After installation I opened to the first screen of the slicer program and stopped. Realizing that this was a good time to try and find a YouTube tutorial for it I happened, luckily, to find this video. I have to say that this is the best tutorial video for anything that I watched on YouTube. You put this old retired guy from being nervous about getting started to anxiously awaiting delivery of my printer. After subscribing I'm going to check out your other videos. Thank you so much and keep up the great work.

Would love to see a video on supports! Just brought a S1 and watching your videos before getting started. Thanks for putting these out there!

[ronaldchampagne]

Never mind, found it . Without this video who knows how long I would have struggled to find this out !! Its always these little details that manufacturers leave out that cause horrendous wasted time !

[Nitroamek]

Thank you bro. You've helped me so much in this video. Tony Stark says "Sometimes you gotta run before you can walk" but first you showed us how to wear, a shoe to be able to do it! Thank you man!

[HackMonkey]

Flexi Rex printed in TPU is one of my all time favorite things to print! Just so fun!

[darrylwilliamsdgwilliams]

Thanks, finally someone answering all my questions. Saved so I can go back and look.

[michcraft]

You are an icon of service to the community, we applaud you Bryan!

I’m a 3D Printer beginner and this video is awesome. I needed help with how to upload a STL file to a creality software to print out on my Ender 3 S1pro printer. Thank you so much for your video!!

Bryan: Update 12 May 2023;I’ve not used the Slicer in months. Thus returning to make the Elegoo Uno prototyping tray you have been nice enough to share.
Thanks for sharing this video should be getting my Creality Sermoon V1 on Tuesday. I installed both Creality & Cura slicers on my Windows computer before watching this video. I have a Thingiverse account & have several things ready to slice. I plan to get that Flexy TRex later this evening. I have subscribed to your channel too ! Looking forward to watching more of you videos !

We just got my daughter a new printer. Tons of videos, they were good, but miss explaining some steps. This was the most informative one yet. Thank you.

[ironknucklenation]

I just assembled my Ender 3 today and this video was the perfect explanation on how the program works. I enjoy your explanation on the software, I didn't feel overwhelmed at all. You got a new subscriber now.

[nunyabidniz]

Creality should be paying you. Much thanks for an informative video.

[gregghill]

Yes please . Your videos are very comprehensive and enjoyable. A support video would be very helpful. Thank you.
