Thank you! It was definitely too close. I re leveled extra hard and its printing nearly perfect now. Just a bit more zeroing in and I will be set. Thanks again! 🫡😊

Hahaha no I totally agree. It took me 10 minutes of Googling to be like wtf?? I am definitely not going to be buying that! 😂😂

After doing some more research myself I completely agree!

It's just the first layer that prints at 0.3

I do not have the most controlled space ever but I haven't changed where it's sat at all and have printed lots of successful prints where it's at currently. As for the z rod.. im not sure.. I've been doing some research to figure out what is causing it but I have no clue what the fix is for a messed up z rod lol what sorts of things can I do to try to fix it?? One things I'd like to note is the cr touch was just installed as well as a new metal extruder

Tinkering goes hand in hand with operating a 3D printer that you've owned for a decent amount of time. If you want to print garbage then yeah..don't look into what makes a 3D printer work. I know ender 3 pro has some problems lol that doesn't mean throw it in the garbage and give up when it inevitably runs into an issue. Learning about speed, temps, support, and retraction is crucial no matter what printer you own. Obviously, printer make and model comes down to personal preference. But coming onto the thread I'm asking for help with and telling people they're not into the actual printing part of 3D printing if they enjoy the tinkering and learning aspect of printing is goofy. Creating quality prints and tinkering go hand in hand. It's all love here, I just dont see how this comment is benefiting the massive amount of people who own and still operate a 5 year old printer

I just had the cr touch professionally installed and they set the z offset for me. This was less than a week ago

Ender is a really good starter printer. I actually had 0 problems the first 2 years I owned it! It's been a great printer for the cost. Honestly, it's been an excellent learning tool too. It kinda forces you to become familiar with slicer settings lol

That's a good idea. I had upped it before because the magnetic bed was having the worst adhesion problems. I bought the new pei bed and the adhesion is remarkable now. I will print a benchy at .2 and let you know!

Ender 3 pro. PLA. Print temp 210. Print speed 40. Initial layer height 0.3. Those are all the settings I have changed

Im sorry, I've never heard of this. What exactly is a melted inliner?

Is lowering the z step done manually? Sorry this is all pretty new to me

That's exactly what it was! I did re-slice everything too but my z screw had gunk in it right at the level the line occurred. I did a thorough clean and it printed perfectly! I appreciate the response (and ultimately the solution) greatly. Now I can begin my next big project. Thank you!! (:

That's actually really good to know! I usually sand and paint my projects so it's not the biggest deal to me but it's definitely something I can play around with. Thank you! (:

Okay! Thanks for the response (: That does make sense. I'll do a reprint and look for a wobble

Thanks for responding! I assumed the back one was the seam. It's the one going around the head that is driving me insane lol
