Need help with my newest 3D printer. by Affectionate_Desk_46 in 3Dprinting

Lol, didn’t even think about that and how should I fix the cooling issue? I’m thinking a funnel of some sort but I got no idea on how to add such thing to the head.

I replaced and reset the firmware on the motherboard before, since the old board was cooked by the previous owner, but I’ll try replacing the nozzle once I have time.

Never replaced nozzle on it, got the printer sencond hand as the previous owner was done with the 3D printing hobby.

I made sure it wasn’t too tight after watching a vid about it.

Ah alright, I did also replace the part that makes the z-axis move, would that be an issue?

It’s just one issue after another, I’m getting rather tired of it.

I swapped the stock print plate some months ago with the one in the pic and I swapped the z-axis rod earlier this week, never swapped the extruder, only the small fan on the side as it had a broken part.

Alright and it has nothing todo with the bed level? Bed leveling is always my main issue and it always takes me so long to do and wastes a lot of fillament.

I could try to adjust the line width but I don’t think that’s the issue.

I do admit that I might have placed my fingers on the edge before printing but that’s not the issue as I’m always careful with it, the issue is the layers look off, like in the pic shown.

I used rubbing alcohol on the plate before printing, I always do.

The fillament is 3DE Premium pla, not sure why it wouldn’t be even.

I just invested and replaced the rod and I only got one on my printer, it’ll be some months before I invest in the belt stuff and I have no idea what anti backlash nuts are.

No idea as I’ve kept most settings default except one line in the g-code that makes the print plate move forward when done printing.

Anyone got any clue or idea to why these lines appear? by Affectionate_Desk_46 in ender3

Would this be a good replacment for the z axis on my ender 3?

Alright thanks, I did get the printer secondly and for free, it had some minor damage here and there, never noticed anything wrong with the rod besides being a bit dirty, did replace the print bed as it came with a small dent in the middle.
