Ender 3 V2 Printer is running, but has issues.
Quality wise, I'm pretty impressed by what you get for this price point. Tools to assemble, a scraper (putty knife) and side cutters are all included. Parts are all labeled fairly well, and no quality issues with any of them. Print quality on default settings is decent, and although the fan is pretty loud, the steppers themselves are silent. Assembly/adjustment was pretty easy, and even adjusting bed level wasn't too difficult.
The problem is, the 8Gb micro SD card that came with it no longer works; my computer won't read it at all. A new card, purchased locally, only works about 1 in 20 tries. I've got a service call in, because I believe the issue is the built in card reader, and it seems to be a known issue. Tried to direct connect to my son's old laptop, but didn't have much success there. I'll work on getting that sorted out later.

Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts
