It wasn&#39;t TPU, it was the plastic coating on top of the print sheet. I ended up pulling the entire coating off, figured I wouldn&#39;t use that side. Since it was the only one I had, I flipped it over and put the other side down. It adhered with whatever glue held that coating on.<br/><br/>Today, PETG stuck to this smooth side, and while trying to get it off, the print bed scraped again. I am going to order a new one, but before I can use it I need to get this one off the bed. It is STUCK! <br/><br/>Pulling it pulled the near left corner up (it&#39;s not sitting crooked) and with the plastic spatula thing, I have only been able to get it this far.<br/><br/>What do I do? I was just going to keep yanking as hard as I can until I overcome this glue, but I am afraid I am going to rip the bed under it off. I already am going to have to go figure out how to get it to re-level itself.<br/> <img src="https://QuarteredCircle.net/system/media_attachments/files/115/731/559/760/940/204/original/441af314979b44e8.png"> <br/> <img src="https://QuarteredCircle.net/system/media_attachments/files/115/731/560/369/139/607/original/77476e13fc7952e0.png"> <br/> 2025-12-16T23:29:03+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsyx55cntrrccn35ymazmjln700dtnuppp7f2s44q2y2r600ps8t0czyz86dxmxmc4lep29jxdlae44dvlvcmpfuqcy8f2j48sl9uj8j88xkg34lnl I keep forgetting...<br/><br/>The Void is for screaming, The Abyss is for staring, right? 2025-12-14T15:34:49+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfg3u5m7eq28p9rkk5z0rcjyam6aef66q039tmm2905npkcm73f8czyz86dxmxmc4lep29jxdlae44dvlvcmpfuqcy8f2j48sl9uj8j88xke377lm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrl2yar7rmpefjunwezsgre6w6ylaayfravw83tft3kjskaqmlvmse5xk76'>nevent1q…xk76</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I appreciate the troubleshooting.

I included the picture, and you can see that it seems to have two blanked displays, with part of a display overlayed on top of the one it did start the login animation on. <br/><br/>If I switch to another terminal (ctrl-alt-F1) and back, it loads the laptop screen, and actually starts up (because using my keyboard hot-keys, I can load just about everything normally, and everything that&#39;s not Plasma related works.

Then, Saturday morning it &#34;Departed a FedEx facility.&#34;<br/><br/>With no further updates, I called, and they said it was moved to another hub in Memphis, and I should be getting a piece of mail that will be sent out in &#34;24 to 48 Business Hours.&#34; (Person on the phone couldn&#39;t tell me what a business hour was, despite being pressed for that answer.) Then they went completely silent, as in their equipment seemed to stop working. This was after they started the call saying they had technical difficulties, but I strongly suspect that was a blatant lie o they could just end the call when it wasn&#39;t convenient for them anymore.<br/><br/>I know it&#39;s the en💩ification of everything, but I come on!<br/><br/>I told the silent line &#39;So my grand and a half package is lost in the FedEx system and FedEx has technical difficulties so they don&#39;t have to answer for it.&#39; in the hopes that it is recorded and I don&#39;t know, hope that somebody cares?<br/><br/>I ordered this two months ago. I bet this is all Tariff related bull💩, which wasn&#39;t a thing when I was buying an international product back then. I want the 3D Printer I ordered but it sounds like I might end up having to cancel it and just try to get the four--digits-of-cash-my-wife-yelled-at-me-for-spending back and learn to accept that, as an american, I just can&#39;t have nice things anymore. 👊🇺🇸🔥 (Translation: punch the USA and burn it all down.) 2025-04-14T14:39:02+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvnmyxl6yv0ge4v5ajkp9qt465yfm22wmc05365saa4yela29544qzyz86dxmxmc4lep29jxdlae44dvlvcmpfuqcy8f2j48sl9uj8j88xkxvyw2t <a href="https://store.creality.com/products/ender-3-v3-corexz-3d-printer">https://store.creality.com/products/ender-3-v3-corexz-3d-printer</a><br/><br/>At the very bottom are reviews. At least two other people had the same catastrophic failure, and the warehouse is unresponsive about replacements. <br/><br/>Granted, my model is the Plus version, but it&#39;s a larger bed and this damaged part is also bad. There seems to be replacement nozzles, but that&#39;s it for parts. I emailed the store by replying to my email from when I bought it six months ago.<br/><br/>Bottom line: Can anyone recommend a different printer? Bambu&#39;s scaring me with their proprietary firmware stuff, so I want to avoid them. Creality&#39;s kinda burned me here.<br/><br/>I&#39;ve heard of Prusa, but is that the only other option?<br/><br/>#3DPrinting 2025-02-11T03:29:06+01:00
