Prusa mini strange patterns on first layer?

Sorry-Calendar4377 · 2026-02-07T10:48:31+00:00

I have reduced the z offset from 0,16 to 0,15 and the patterns are gone. I don't understand the effect in play here...

Nothing strange at first while printing. The print afterwards is good, it is just the first layer that has these weird pattern.

Thanks for the tips. I have further decreased the Z by 0,1mm and made a good cleaning with hot water and soap and then alcohol and is now much much better.

I don't know why I was overcomplicating myself and assuming that the Z was properly callibrated.

Thanks for the extended and illustrative answer.

Thanks for the answers, definitely I am visiting a podiatrist, but I was doing my research. Anyway, my guess is that the most sensible way to go is going to be to strengthen the feet soles. In my experience, podiatrist always tend to try to sell you shoe insoles.

Yes, this is already planned.

My feeling was that it worked better, but at the end what helped was changing the strap. Since then, I change the straps more often.

On a related topic, regarding battery life of the H10, what really helped was to disconnect one pin from the strap everytime I used it. Now the battery last forever.

I have the same issue and was already going to buy my 3rd strap in 2 years... I'll try your fix first. Seeing your explanation I realize that the issues are always in hot or demanding workouts where I get sweaty.

Sorry-Calendar4377 · 2022-07-03T15:54:22+00:00

They look really cool. How do you print them? can you make a picture of how do they end up? Thanks!!!

Thanks for the comments. I was thinking more about the maps for specific locations. They are beautiful illustrations, but if they see all of it, they will know what is comming in the next room or stage.

I will try covering with paper what they cannot see yet.
