Why Upgrade Your Monoprice Printer to an Ender 3 V2 Neo? [Initial setup]
Why I decided to upgrade my Monoprice Maker Ultimate 2 printer to the Ender 3 V2 Neo & initial setup. Straightforward setup, and results are fantastic. Unbelievable for ~$300.
TOC:
0:00 Intro - why I upgraded
1:05 Assembly and timing starts
2:00 Don't install your gantry backwards!
3:00 Set up on rack, level bed
4:10 First print
4:50 Final thoughts, and further setup goals

The above links are affiliate, meaning I get a small percentage of sales from Amazon. Seems they have flash sales on the Ender, so you may want to look around for a few days. Creality did not sponsor this video... Even though I asked! I'm not above such behavior.

To be fair, I probably never really set up the Maker Ultimate 2 properly. On the other hand, there isn't the same kind of helpful ecosystem around it that helps you get things dialed in very quickly. I did a review of the MPU2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TyGpMrMeL8 but it's not great compared to the stuff out there for the Ender 3.
Speaking of which, this Ender 3 V2 Neo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaDvZqpQ_t8 by @JustVlads was really excellent, and helped me get things tuned in very, very quickly. As mentioned, I didn't really try to do a review per se here, as it'd be nowhere near as good as his and probably others, but more a piece on my personal motivation/experience.
