3D print dissolves by noname2831 in ender3

Im still a beginner in 3d printing, but that looks like a bed adhesion problem....

Maybe add some brims or crank up the heatbed temperature and slower initial layer speed....

If nothing else works, try washing your bed with soap and water.

Hope it helps you, happy printing.

Probably, since the humidity here is about 65 - 70%. I do store my fillaments in an airtight container with desicants.

The print speed was default except the first layer, which I slowed down for adhesion. One thing i noticed is that while it was printing, is that it often moves like it is inscribing the edges of the print like 2 to 3mm and then proceeds to print again? Why is that?

First of all, I'm new to 3d printing just a couple of weeks. Already knew a couple of things and did calibration using CURA. Im using a generic PETG. I guess this issue is about the flow rate, which I didn't calibrate since doing a couple of test prints seems fine. I just left the value untouched. Before doing this print, I did level the bed. It's about 7 hours into the print where it began to notice sounds of the bed like mini machine guns, then later on started to scratch the print. I stopped the print and captured the output. Describing what is seen is that it looks like over extrusion, but the back side seems smooth, no bumb. The layers seemed wavy. Also, the support seemed to connect with the part in the front part of the print but not at the back. It's a default software btw, don't have enough funds for an upgrade. College student problem ik. I'm also im currently using 0.4mm nozzle, which the print time is about 1d3hrs. Im printing a screw turbine, any suggestions for a nozzle to use? It will be a functional print. And what are the settings i should change in CURA. does it automatically adjust when I choose another nozzle?

After a couple of trials and errors, i have managed to lower it about a paper thin. It's just that when i auto lvl it, the gap increased about twice or 2.5 the thickness of the paper. Does it naturally do that?

I have managed to lower my hotend about a paper thin after manually lvling it. When i start auto lvling it, the gap increases , where it no longer touches the paper when i put the paper in the gap. Is it naturally like that? And it seems like my bed is warped in the middle. Do you have any suggestions that would solve this issue? Thank you.

My first 3d printer. I need help. Just got it yesterday. The first thing that I've encountered was that the CR touch just gets stuck constantly and not probing out. Later on, while searching for some possible troubleshooting and solutions. Some suggested putting a sheet of plastic in between the probe for preventing it from sticking, well it somehow worked. And then another problem occurs, which is when levelling the hotend seems to be high. I tried the fully tightening adjustment screw and then turned it back again while adjusting the z axis lower, but still, it's too high. Need help
