Link doesn't work 😞
It is using unicorn nozzles, yes, but I didn't know that until I needed to replace them. Thankfully, I was still within the return window for the $40 set I bought just in case. But shouldn't I be able to tell which parts I need before they get here? How do I know what to buy going forward? What if I get something incompatible and can't return it?
Here’s another hotend link, the old one was dead indeed: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_EQs5RNi You can get very cheap MK8 nozzles for it, or get some better ones too. The hardened steel ones can handle the CF filaments really well, I’ve been using one for over a year now.
I don’t one why you’re asking me these questions. The link works for me - maybe it’s your adblocker. I believe it was only the extruder that was different. Creality support was pretty bad, but I’ve pressed them to eventually send me replacement parts when I needed them
Well I wasn't asking you. I just think the whole situation is bonkers. I'm going to see about reporting them to consumer protection or whatever.
Good luck with that, they don’t care too much about respecting OSS licensing either. Aside from that I’m enjoying my K1 - after I’ve modified it ;)
I will try sending those links to someone who can see them. Thank you for sticking with me while I ranted lol
No worries. I’ve sent you updated link in another comment.
