I too am new to 3D printing with the MP Select Mini v2 being my entry into the process. I have yet to make the bed reroute changes that everyone seems to keep suggesting, but that is next on my list now. I have done 2 things I think have made easy and "relatively" cheap improvements.
Personally I got a 3D printer to get into some of these more one off type projects, so it was well worth it IMO.
No, but if you are going through the hassle of doing the mod it would be better to use a good quality stepper with the integrated screw since they are very 'wobble free' due to the direct connection. If you dont currently have a stepper and 8MM lead screw collecting dust it makes a lot of sense to drop $30-40 for a good quality stepper with a screw that will only require trimming for installation. Keeps it simpler.
FWIW, this option is far superior to the cheaper on that is commonly used, they look similar but they are not. The SainSmart unit at $40 has a much more precise screw and better micro-stepping or just better tolerances in general than the Anycubic option at $30. I sent 2 of the Anycubic steppers back, both were sloppy, but the SainSmart has been perfect. It might just be luck of the draw but IMO it is worth another $10 to not gamble.
Good one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JTSEFQY/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Not as good one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019TRKAPO/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It is also worth noting that both of these steppers are wired differently. Easy enough to sort the pairs with a multi meter. Google it if you are not familiar.
There are lots of options, but for just getting started I suggest:
Hatchbox PLA 3D 1.75 mm. This particular one is black, but get the color(s) that suit your fancy!
I suggest this one because:
There are dozens of brands of PLA and most of them will work just fine. Feel free to experiment. I use $20/kg as my standard "this is an OK price" limit for standard PLA
Be more mindful when switching material types. PLA is forgiving, but hates heat/sun. Its also not overly strong. ABS is apparently strong, but a pain to print on these monoprice printers (requires high temps) and the fumes are toxic. Wood was fun - until it clogged my nozzle. Apparently you need a larger nozzle to print wood without clogging frequently. Whoops!
Anyways, when getting new filament:
Side note: store your filament is a dry place. 3D material tends to absorb water from overly humid air. When the filament does this, it doesn't print as well. I keep mine in air tight storage containers with one of these Renewable Dehumidifiers
I've had great luck with AIO Robotics PLA sold on Amazon for around $13 per 0.5 kg. The other PLA brands I've purchased work, but the prints aren't as smooth. I believe it's because the tolerance is better on the AIO Robotics PLA (+/- 0.02 mm). The 3D MARS PLA I bought that doesn't print as smoothly has a wider tolerance of +/- 0.05 mm.
Also, I bought a E3D Full clone hotend on Amazon that is way better than the stock hotend (that often clogged on me).
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GD8LCFO
And here's the mount you'll need to print for it (there are others that are probably better, but this works for me):

I've replaced both the hot end fan and the case fan with these. Print the 40mm version of this first though. Replacing the hot end fan will require cutting the wires and soldering. I actually cut the wires on the printer, then cut the "3" end off the 3-2 adapter included with the fans. Then I soldered on the "2" end so I'd have a plug to plug in the fan and any other fan I may get in the future.
Also, My V2 was super loud as well.
I followed this guy's tutorial, it now incredibly quiet.
The bed bushings were really easy to replace, the X axis was much harder. I ended up drilling a few holes in the plastic carriage and securing the PLA bushings with zipties, as they kept slipping out when it went back and forth.
My printer is so quiet now, it's incredible. I didn't need to remove the X-axis shield on mine.
Something I learned later was to heat up one of the metal rods on the stove a bit. Just one end so you can still hold it. Slip on the plastic bushings you printed one at a time, the heat will melt them and make them super smooth and glide easy.
Amazon stuff:
Printed parts:
Anything directly touching the hotend is printed in PETG (on the Mini) so it (hopefully) doesn't melt under normal use. ABS should work too.
This Hackaday article has lots of good upgrades and was the best guide I could find. Although he has posted his version of the zero-offset adapter, he goes into all sorts of craziness with the fans and his clamping piece doesn't allow for the 2-in-1 fan thing I wanted to use.
And if anyone is interested in just sticking a 40mm fan on the original shroud, this is the adapter I had in the before pictures. File called "adapt_30mm_to_40mm_at_0_deg". I rescaled it a bit to make it shorter. I've actually gone and attached it to the blue clip-on fan piece that came with the hotend kit so I can use that if I want my big fan without part cooling.
I just did this swap today so I haven't done extensive testing yet... but that cube sure looks smooth and shiny, doesn't it?
Edit: Gold? You shouldn't have... Also minor update, all-metal heatbreak is on the way and I've got an idea for attaching the hotend to the adapter that I'm gonna try out. Nothing major, but hopefully it'll make things easier.
Yes the fan A header on the board is software controlled and not really suitable for being used to cool the v6 unless you leave it at always 100%. Wire it to your part fan and you will be fine. Alternatively, if you're lucky and your fan B header works and you can just plug into that instead. I shorted out my fan A header and had to go with wiring in two of these for my cooling needs: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N30UK2M
Edit / tldr yep 10A
I got this one but paid too much ($40!) because I'd gotten it in my head that I had to have a level 6 efficiency rating: https://www.ebay.com/itm/120W-12V-10A-AC-DC-Efficiency-Level-VI-Switching-Power-Adapter-w-6ft-Power-Cord/401068677983

Just found this one for $18, level V efficiency:
https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07PWZQ33N
Key specs: The barrel jack is 5.5mm OD, 2.5mm ID, that's the key to search for as a lot of the cheaper ones have 2.1mm ID which won't fit.
Thank you so much!
As for the hot end, if i just wanted to replace the 30mm fan with a Noctua 40mm fan using this, and i didn't want to splice wires, which ones of these two fans should i get? This one (5V) or this one?
i've had this problem many times.
its almost certainly that your wires are making intermittent contact. i've had to replace my bed sensor wiring and power wiring about 4 times.
once however my actual temp sensor cracked in half and i had to replace it with a 100k thermistor.
https://www.amazon.com/Gikfun-Thermistor-Temperature-Sensor-Printer/dp/B018QL5LPI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1481397650&sr=8-4&keywords=100k+thermistor
here are the thermistors and as for the wiring, if thats what it turns out to be(most likely is)

for the wiring inside the unit, so that your wiring can be replaced easily without buying a new wiring harness.
No major strain on the fan, it just lowers the voltage, not perfect but probably not going to set a fire pulling .3a. I use them on my RC cars for LEDs and stuff. This is the one I have used many times on different projects. It takes 12v and lowers it to either 6v or 5v, up to 3a. I had it at 6v first, but I could feel blowback so lowered it to 5v. Works perfect and is whisper quiet.
No cant be used as a speed controller. It's constant output. If you want to adjust speed, you want a PWM like this. That will allow you to adjust the speed. The good thing about PWMs are they dont lower voltage, they lower the pulse width.
I think many would be interested if you find a source for better replacements.These might be suitable replacements.
Yeah I don't know what you are seeing for 20 or 30. I got this on Amazon for like 6 bucks and it feels really sturdy.
A new heatbed is around $30. Another option is to buy a $10 square silicone heat pad from aliexpress, stick it underneath the stock bed and clip a sheet of picture frame glass to the top.
Don't be discouraged by a jam, it's a simple system. Take the fan shroud off, unscrew the fitting and take the tube out. Heat up the block and try to push filament through by hand. This usually clears blockages. If still a no-go, use cleaning filament instead. It's does wonders for cleaning hotends.

I’ve only had my printer a short time too (I think it is is 8 or 9 days old).
If you want to go down the route of replacing the extruder, I recommend the right-hand MK8 aluminium extruders you can find on Amazon. Don't use the bearing in the kit, pick up a MR104ZZ bearing on eBay instead and then you won't need to take the metal extruder gear off of the stepper motor on the printer. I followed this guide on Hackaday to install and get back to printing.
Also, I've had varying results with the PC4-M6 included with the MK8 extruder to attach the bowden tube.
I can't seem to find a 12V Noctua 40mm fan. Will this 5V one from amazon work?and will it require any soldering?Edit: Found a 12V Noctua
I'm in Canada as well. I have been using the AMZ3D PLA off of Amazon. I have 8 differnet colors and haven't had any problems.
Honestly, that's sort of my biggest hangup. I don't even own a soldering iron, and if I get one, I'll need to practice on junk electronics before I try to do something I can use. I do have a bunch of these though.
https://www.amazon.com/Wago-222-412-LEVER-NUTS-Conductor-Connectors/dp/B00HIOP6SC/ref=lp_16347583011_1_1?srs=16347583011&ie=UTF8&qid=1499343102&sr=8-1
Any of these should work. You'll have to.cut the lead screw of course. Well actually there is a Z-axis extension mod or two that you may want to look into before cutting the lead screw.
Also be sure to check the shipping dates since it may ship from overseas.

"MK8 right handed extruder" is what you're looking/searching for. I bought this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DDGGN92/ and it worked fine (there will be leftover parts since youre not using the bracket). I think they ranged in price from $11-$20.
/edit one more thing, you'll need a lighter to get the toothed pulley off of the stepper motor axle.
I recently had this problem. I used a heat gun on the tube to warm it up and get it out. However if your not VERY careful you melt the liner as well. You can order replacements from amazon

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G94TSWV/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_api_i_4PwBDbSJWATVM, I only have the bulk link but these should work, I’ve used them
Get a plastic tub and a thing of reusable desicant.
Is this what you are looking for?
I havent been abel to find any either, but these are only 1mm longer than stock, so youd need a 1mm z-spacer for them to work. Doing the spacer means you don't have to lower the print bed more, but you will lose 1mm off your z-axis height.
Now i'm not 100% sure on the spacer height, so if anyone can correct me id appreciate it.
Here's the link for the complete E3D upgrade. I have no idea where to get a stock replacement.

This is my PLA https://www.amazon.com/1-75mm-Black-PLA-Printer-Filament/dp/B01BZ5ND8O
And yeah Cura does still do,
But only when the surface area is sufficiently large enough (~ > 4 square cm) but when I was printing the cube (Area 1 square cm) or when it's printing some sort of screw or a column that doesn't necessary have a lot of surface area, both Cura and S3D decide to do the infill in two parts. However Cura does the outline all at once, but S3D does the outline in 2 stages.
You might have partially cleared the jam, but left a layer of plastic still inside the nozzle. I know I was surprised at just how much plastic stayed in the nozzle even after repeated cleaning in acetone.
If you're really adverse to taking it apart, there are also these cleaning tools:
I haven't tried them, but they are an option.

I use the plastic from monoprice and it's reasonably good, I wouldn't be able to speak about the quality of the stuff you have.

Another way I can tell mine is flowing properly is by heating it up to 200 and using the manual extrude option on the move menu. Clogged nozzles will look stringy and/or the filament will curl up. When it's extruding properly, the plastic will drop straight down and have an even consistency. When you forced the filament through, it will melt and pass through, but won't necessarily clean off the old crud stuck to the walls of the nozzle.
You're very welcome for the limited insight I have on this topic. I saw your post and said, that was me a couple weeks ago, and it was a lot of trial and error to figure out how to solve this issue of just getting it to print consistently.
I bought this stepper motor and followed the HackaDay guide to replace my stepper motor. My original one was slightly bent and was causing z banding. As it shows in the video, when I try to tell the printer to raise or lower on the Z axis, it just makes a thunk-like noise and barely moves. The video shows me using the controls to move the motor three time (twice “up”, once “down”). I have also tried just sending g code with Ponterface.
I unfortunately didn’t test out the motor before cutting it down to size and installing it, but does this look like a bad motor or have I messed up something? I hooked up the original motor and it spins just fine.
Hey I got you... Trust me I've fucked up more hotends than you'll ever think possible... Thermisistor is the wire on your left and it may be broke but seems to be intact. Now your thermocouple/heater cartridge is not intact(its the cylinder with 2 wires sticking out of it. Still inside ths heater block)
Here are a few things you can do to remedy the situation.
Here is a link to my hot end troubles it might be useful.
FYI I'm a firm believer in be able to fix everything yourself. I believe that this philosophy is very applicable in 3d printing. Otherwise you'll just be throwing money at problems witjout every getting to the source of the problem. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.
