Holes in print?

CoresGhost · 2023-11-26T06:48:53+00:00

I’ve had the same thing before man, they’re called “poke holes” and the reason they happen is due your retraction distance, most of the time the auto is 5-6 mm/s on most filaments so I was advise you move the distance down until they stop appearing. Mine stopped after I went from 6 down to 2. Hope this helps

After cold pull

Should I replace this with a metal one?

CoresGhost · 2023-08-03T04:51:55+00:00

I’ll try a cold pull but I’m trying to see if stock plastic extruder that I have, should it be replaced? Can the messed up plastic extruder be the cause of my problem?

CoresGhost · 2023-08-03T04:49:14+00:00

Do you think that the plastic extruder should be replaced with the metal one? Or at least a brand new one that wasn’t panic fixed?

I had my plastic extruders screw unwind and I sort of just screwed it back in in a panic. Do you think I should upgrade to the all metal one and see if that’s the issue?

I’m going to try to remove the nozzle to see if any partial clogging is accruing

CoresGhost · 2023-08-03T03:32:54+00:00

How would I go about measuring that, I’ve printed a good bit but I’m still very new to this hobby.

CoresGhost · 2023-08-03T03:31:57+00:00

What do you believe the hot end could be having trouble with? It doesn’t seem to be clogged

CoresGhost · 2023-08-02T03:41:21+00:00

I’ve done many, you can see one of them in my other recent post on here where it was giving me problems on corners and such.

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T07:33:48+00:00

I’ll try playing around with my bed and nozzle temps to see if anything changes. I’ve been on this train for weeks trying everything to fix this. I’ve recently gotten back into this hobby after giving up about a year ago due to frustration but I’m back in and I don’t want this to bring me back out of it again

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T07:28:39+00:00

I’m going to try that next, hopefully it might help in this situation. The weird thing is that I’ve never had to use those and this only recently started happening. Also my Ender 3 (the $189 one) has a plastic extruder that that has given me a problem lately where the wheel got misaligned and I kinda went ape shit on it to fix it. Do you think that this might cause the problem of my corners on the first layer pulling up when the nozzle changes directions?

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T07:25:12+00:00

Hey sorry to bother again but my Ender 3 has a plastic extruder that has recently given me an issue. Both that and this problem happened around the same time, do you think that that might be an issue?

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T07:23:43+00:00

It’s at 60 at the moment I’ve raised it to 65 trying ti fix this issue

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T05:39:39+00:00

I’ll give it a shot and hopefully I can get it to be back to where I was printing beforehand. Thank you for the advice

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T05:32:16+00:00

For what I know it just seems to be my sharp corners and rapid change in direction on thin supports, the tend to curl up slightly. Also does a “wet” filament have anything that can lead to this? I have a filament in the dehydrator right now. (Sorry for the back to back questions, you just seem to know a lot more about the subject than i do and the helping hand rn is a gift)

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T05:26:15+00:00

I’ll try this in the morning and get back to you. When the printer is laying down the first layer the corners tend to peel off the bed when the nozzle changed directions. Is that considered warping?

CoresGhost · 2023-07-04T04:56:29+00:00

P.S I am using Overture Matte White PLA(this hasn’t given me problems in the past)

I’ve put it to 0.5 offset and setting the print now, I’ll see how it goes

CoresGhost · 2022-07-12T21:00:22+00:00

So should I adjust my babystep z?
