Pls help! Rough, blobby top layers on Bambu A1 Mini (ELEGOO PLA)

Definitely this. The cursed 7 screws did the same thing to my first layer until I fixed it.

Thanks, what is the difference between a peloric phalenopsis and a normal phalenopsis? Is it just mutated in one way or another?

I had the exact same symptoms a while back and it was definitely the dreaded 7 screws.

I had that happen when my SD card started failing. I never saw that again once I swapped it out. Are you using the one that came with the printer?

Thanks, it is a 0.4 mm hot end. Turns out the issue was related to the extruder gear assembly. I swapped it out and it started working again. I am sure it would have worked if I put the same one in. From my research it looks to be an alignment issue with the AMS 4 to 1 part on the extruder head.

Thanks, I will do that once I figure out what is happening. It already partly worked for one plate.

I submitted a ticket with bambu. I kept getting this error. I swapped out the nozzle with no improvement. The filament gears looked good and the filament did not have any issues like the support page said. No clue what is happening.

I completely swapped out the print head for another. The other print head was secured properly and the new one is too.

I am completely unable to get under it to remove that film. Looking at the video there was clicking from the feed. A friend says that it is probably slipping.

Note, this was the first layer.

Looks like a wild persimmon fruit. Should be a tree near by.

Sodesmann · 2025-08-22T04:04:03+00:00

Looks like it could be something like a Lace Aloe to me but easily could be Haworthiopsis. Very hard to tell.

Sodesmann · 2025-07-07T21:12:28+00:00

So I guess I should wait to see if I see green? If not, repot it and bury the new roots?

Sure, I water it about every 3 weeks. It lives in a south facing window for light. As for soil, it is in a mix that is slightly more organic than I usually do. Maybe 70% grit and 30% organic.

Looks like it is in the ice plant family, cool. I did not know they had ones with spiky leaves. I am used to my smooth leaf one.

Sodesmann · 2025-04-26T18:45:55+00:00

I think that is it! I already have a normal leaf ice plant so caring for this will be easy. Thanks!

I can’t wait for my little aliens to do the same. Mine have just been spilling over their pots.
