@simonoid Before considering a call ... checklists

1. Raise the nozzle high above the bed, heat and extrude filament. Ensure the extrusion is smooth and consistent. Look for bubbles, steam which could indicate wet filament.

2. Is that the Creality glass bed? If so, scrub with 0000 steel wool and dishwashing liquid. Then douse in isopropyl and wipe dry with paper towels.

3. If that's a PEI or similar bed, scrub with dishwashing liquid and a scrub brush (nail brush works) and then isopropyl wipedown.

4. I'm pretty sure the CR-10S Pro has automatic levelling, so make sure you run that procedure after manually trimming up.

5. Handy Tip: Keep some nylon filament around, preferably slightly damp and run it through the nozzle after a clog and it'll "steam clean" things. This is only valid for an all-metal hotend that can handle nylon temps though.

6. Make sure your belts are tight!

Second hand 3D printers are a potential nightmare because there's usually a reason why people are moving them on.
