In this video I will walk you through the set up of the Creality Ender 3 S1 and show you what to look for during the assembly of this printer. We will investigate the common errors of 3D printer assembly and some simple considerations for the construction of this machine and 3D printers in general.

I hope to provide you with insight into what is involved with putting this printer together if you are considering purchasing this machine.

Overall I was very pleased with this machine over the several months I was able to spend with it. I thought it provided great value relative to the cost of the machine and it is basically a very well equipped Ender 3 V2 out of the box.

You will save time and money going with this machine over the Ender 3 V2 as most of the common upgrades come standard on the S1.

I would recommend this printer to anyone looking for a "out-of-the-box" solution for general use. You can be up and running in next to no time, especially with so many available slicer profiles for the Ender 3 series of printers.

If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, I would love to hear from you in the comments section below.

Thank you for watching!
