Completely New To 3D Printing. Questions

Hello, I’m new to 3D printing, but just got the Enders 5 Max. I’m into electronics and want to be able to make custom parts and casings when i would like them.

But I’m a little confused, as the manuals that came with this are pretty short and not very informative. I thought I had to level the heat plate… But it doesn’t say anything in the manual about how to do this, but I did notice that it was auto-leveling on the screen, so maybe it does that for me now?

What would be some good places to look to begin to learn how to start using and making stuff?

Maybe proper maintenance?

Yes, The Ender-5 Max auto levels - all current printer model do, actually.

Creality has a great wiki (wiki.creality.com) and youtube channel for all of their printer models - here is the playlist for the Ender5Max. Ender-5 Max related tutorial - YouTube

As for how to begin, Youtube has a lot of videos about various topics. I would start by getting to know your printer. Watch some of the set up videos and reviews, download some models from CrealityCloud or other sites and experiment. Feel free to ask questions too :slight_smile:
