Creality 3d printer CR10S

I recently purchased a Creality CR10S 3d printer because it’s a 3d printer why not.  The 3d printers have really come down in price and you can pick one up for under $200 now.  The system was easy to assemble and get up and running.  I did have some issues with the Ultimate Cura software that was sent with it.  When I stopped using that software the 3d prints started coming out much better.  I guess I need to learn how to make the adjustments to each of the software platforms to make sure the prints work out well.  So far, I have just downloaded files from Thingiverse and I have modified a couple but none well enough to upload as a remix.

Here are some of those prints:

I was able to create some real-world prints that are useful.  I installed a video doorbell about a week ago, but the view wasn’t the best.  I was able to find someone on Thingiverse who had a similar doorbell and made a 45-degree angle to get a better view.  I also had to change the design a bit to make it work for my situation.  After a few tweaks and errors, I think it works well now.

Here are the photos of that build:

My next project is to make enclosures for some golf cart headlights I got from work (that were destined for the trash). I will make lights for my palm trees for hopefully much less than they sell for online.
