@mpirringer I did see you had 2 Chiron's from reading a lot of your post, I do like the large foot print of that printer those pics look good, is that top print PLA or ABS?, is that internal gearing in a wheel?

The probe seems pretty safe where it's at on mine, I've had some prints lift up and never really cause any damage.

My printer is still under warranty I'm just going to give them a call for the issues going on with mine.

@mpirringer I do have a machinist 1-2-3 blocks and Mitutoyo calipers I worked at a machine shop for many years in composites, I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to explain that it may help others on here as well , I have already leveled the X-axis about a month ago, it was almost perfect but I made it even to the 3rd decimal place in inches lol. I do know about the WD-40 I've been explaining the same thing to people for years. I have Starret Oil and Super Lube with PTFE I use on things on my desk. I will add one drop of oil while it's probing the bed leveling to see if that helps at all. When running the Z-Axis up and down 150mm each time it sounds smooth and it doesn't make the rough sound.

I'm posting a link of all Axis moving 100mm back and forth, while not probing the Z sounds the best. It's only 3 months old, I have about maybe 30 prints on it and keep a fairly large HEPA filter in the room to help with dust. (https://youtu.be/GWdd8-sK6qo)

I'm doing most of my prints now on a used from craigslist Mono Select Plus, I only added a Mirco swiss nozzle and Micro Swiss heating block, I added BL Touch and Flashed ADVi3++ and changed the extruder teeth/gear. I only got into printing last year. Now this bed had about 20-30 spots where person drove the nozzle into the bed, Also leveled the X-Axis on that. Now my problem is why is the used one from craigslist more smoother running on all Axis than my $1000 3 month old one. Could it just be bad bearing's all around on the pulse?

Sorry in advance if my grammar is poorly written that is my weak point.

@pverdin I have checked and cleaned them but it seams to only do it during the Bed leveling part while it goes up and down alot, it sounds smoother and better when the Z-Axis starts going downward.

Hello all!!

While doing the bed leveling it doesn't sound to great, also the X-Axis movement doesn't sound too smooth either the printer is about 3 months old.
I'm including a link to my Youtube of it doing the bed leveling. (https://youtu.be/KEd2TIMLsx8)

When the nozzle temp is set should there be fluctuations of -/+ 5 Degrees, for instance when set to 210 it'll go from 205-215 constantly and never really stays at one temp?

The cooling fan shroud seems a bit high and angled as well, what distance should the bottom of the shroud be from the bottom of the nozzle!!

Any and all help is apricated!!
