I had a similar issue when I initially installed Klipper on my Ender 3 S1 (not the plus). It would not connect unless I fully restarted Octoprint whenever I turned on the printer. The change I needed to make was go into settings in Octoprint (though I assume its similar on other front ends), and add the following settings:
Serial Port: /tmp/printer
Baud Rate: 11520

If that is not the case for you, try to add some more details. Do you have the config file correct?

.05 on my ender 3 s1 sounds perfect based on the tolerance tests I've run. Thanks!

Thats a very fair point. I've done tolerance tests with mine and can get away with 0 with some encouragement and .05 just fine. Thanks!

Just curious, when making this how much tolerance did you account for? I want to make some for baseball teams, but wasn't sure how much to add.

Shouldnt be the filament then. I would make sure the probe is fully secured like the other comment suggested. Good luck, that sounds frustrating! I need to adjust mine, but usually after printing for a couple weeks.

What type of material are you printing? Could be the material is eating away at the brass nozzle causing you to need to adjust the z offset.

Similar results with my Ender 3 S1. Highly recommend!

Even if it wasn't part of the software that would take minutes to splice together assuming you have access to all feeds (which they do considering it's on their property).

Oh dang, I misread another comment you made. With regular stain the longer you leave on usually the darker it just makes it appear. But as long as you fully wiped off the excess after it should have worked out. That said I've only used stain on actual wood. Haven't tried printing wood PLA yet.

Great for fixing items around the house. Anything that is plastic or could be replaced with plastic can usually be printed. Also great for hardware and jigs. I've had mine for a bit over a month now and have been constantly running it. Check out printables or thingiverse to get an idea of what people are printing. Both are websites people upload models to.

Do it! I recently purchased one and love it. Feel free to ask questions if you have any.

I think that might be your issue. Gel stain from minwax should be wiped off after 3 minutes. Anything longer can cause the issue you are experiencing. I would try to wipe/sand off the finish and start again. On a side note, we need to do that to our banister/railing in this house. The previous owner of the house apparently liked the THICK look of the gel stain.
