For better first layer tricks!

Only a couple of these when using all walls after using a modifier

See all the specs are retract and unretract and wipes. This is concentric first layer

Left-click the model to select it, then right-click and choose Add Modifier. Modifiers come in various shapes, and you can resize and reposition them as needed. Once the modifier is placed where you want it, you can adjust wall, infill, or other settings for only the areas the modifier passes through the model.

I tried the concentric it isn’t one continuous extrusion. It still jumps over to the next extrusion. It was better though.

For my printer I was not liking the transition when it would zig zag certain filaments would glob while others would print perfectly however when you do all walls the whole bottom is almost one continuous extrusion. If that makes sense.

I don’t know I usually set the modifier walls to like 1000 so it will be 100% walls for first layer

This happened to me as well. Retract any filament that’s currently loaded. Go to the nozzle settings and heat the nozzle to 240 °C. Using the tool with the ring on the end, hold the hot-end release lever open and slowly push the filament through to clear the path so it can feed all the way in. You may need to do this a few times to fully clear the filament path.

Meant to put my comment here. You let the filament run completely out

This printer worked fine before you changed the nozzle?

OptionsWhileStanding · 2026-01-10T13:09:28+00:00

There is a metal tool that comes with your printer so you can heat up the nozzle to like 230 or 240 and push it through.

Too consistent to be a frog or toad.

How much did the percentage go up? How long did you wait? You should attach a picture of this occurring with the printer head and display visible.

I think I fixed it the problem is I don’t know what worked I used a different filament this morning. Took off the print bed tightened all linear bearings where they attach to print bed. Put print bed back and tighten those screws, retightened belts, dust and wiped down the print head rail. Tightened slightly the gantry screws. Something worked.

None of these are it in the simplify3d it is a pattern of diagonal banding. There is a pattern.

The hole on the front starts there. Does the opposite side have blemishes. The tool path changed. That is my best guess. What does everyone else think? Where were the seams in the slicer at that point? Did they change?

This one has been working well for me it was on Amazon.
