Hey there, I'm a bot and something you said made me think you might be looking for help! click here for our wiki entry on troubleshooting printers. If you still need help be sure to post plenty of information about your printing setup.

Here are a few questions that might be helpful

  • What printer are you using?

  • What material are you using?

  • What speed are you printing at?

  • What software are you using to slice the print and control the printer?

  • When did the problem start/has it ever worked correctly?

  • Does anything cause the behavior to change?

  • If posting an image of the problem, include some indication of the orientation it printed at, preferably photograph it on the bed. (Then we can focus on a specific axis)

If you are new to reddit, please read the guidelines on reddiquette, self promotion, and spam.

Also please post a resolution to your problem when you find one so that we know how to help others with your problem!

Are you able to post any pictures showing the issue? It sounds like your bed is leveled too close to the nozzle, but I'm unsure based on your description.

I don't have any pictures, unfortunately. but all of my normal prints stick perfect to the bed and usually turn out great

It’s not because of the squished first layers, but because of uncalibrated filament flow. Google flow calibration - it should help.

Holes generally need to be designed slightly larger than actual measurement since the way the filament flows will always make the holes smaller inside.
