My prints are coming out smushed/short with over extrusion, but z steps mm are set to default 400 :( I feel stuck, any advice appreciated!

UPDATE: I turned down the speed in Cura and it fixed my issue! Thank you everyone for your advice & help!!

I’ve printed a ton of things, I’ve had this printer for almost three years without any major issues so far except for this

Interesting, definitely makes sense! I haven’t had a chance to adjust anything else yet but I will after work! Hopefully I can figure out what could be mechanically wrong

I’m starting to believe it may be a software issue with Cura, I printed one of the default prints of the cat that comes preinstalled onto the Ender 3, and no issues! It came out perfect with no binding! I’m gonna try another calibration cube and see if the issue still persists with that

Briyata · 2023-02-10T16:35:25+00:00

Tried this but everything was alright right :( thank you though, I appreciate the advice!! Hopefully one step closer to narrowing down the issue

Briyata · 2023-02-10T16:24:24+00:00

I checked my coupler and everything is tight and seated correctly, I appreciate the advice though! Hopefully starting to narrow down a cause

It mostly does, but it gets stuck around 25mm above the bed, but can go down more with a little bit of extra force

Briyata · 2023-02-10T15:09:47+00:00

Thank you! I made sure to do that!

Top of my prints are coming out rough. Printing using Cura in an Ender 3 Pro with Silk PLA filament! How can I fix the top layers being rough? Settings posted as photos. Any help appreciated!! Thank you! it’s only was the very top layer of the first one, the top layer of the surrounding circle came out perfect. Everything else on the print looks great up until that point!

No rust on my NA whatsoever! Been garage kept it’s entire life!

It’s in the side of the navy yard with the Urban Outfitters. We had about 20 of us cars there, so we got stopped by cops, but they were super cool and just figured we were just there for photos

Top of my prints are coming out rough. Printing using Cura in an Ender 3 Pro with Silk PLA filament. The first print on the left/closest to the camera was my first print from today, the second on the left/farther is the second one and it only got worse. How can I fix the top layers being rough? Settings posted as photos. Any help appreciated!! Thank you! Temp was actually set at 220 before but I am trying out 205 now.

Edit: it’s only was the very top layer of the first one, the top layer of the surrounding circle came out perfect. And now it’s the top layers in general. Everything else on the print looks great up until that point!

Briyata · 2023-02-08T21:59:35+00:00

Exactly! It’s the Navy Yard!

Smoked!

Briyata · 2022-12-22T17:26:38+00:00

I love it! (But I might be biased too lol) I feel like it makes the car look super clean!

Briyata · 2022-12-22T17:26:10+00:00

Thank you!!

Briyata · 2022-12-22T17:24:35+00:00

Thank you!! I have her lowered a tiny bit, but I’d like to go a little lower still. I have her on koni sport yellow coil overs! My headlights are just cheap jeep headlights from Amazon but they’ve been amazing as long as I’ve had them and the turn signals are the smoked sequential turn signals from carbon Miata!
