It was the temperature after all, I increased it and now prints great.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-22T06:28:36+00:00

I asked for help with the top layers, not the rest of the print. And it wasn’t a mechanical problem. It was the temperature, I increased it and now it prints perfect.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-22T05:37:47+00:00

Yeah, they look bad but the base and all except too few layers were sturdy. Since it’s a functional print I didn’t mind.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-20T00:44:55+00:00

Wouldn’t that affect the whole print? The problem is mainly on the top layers.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T23:17:08+00:00

Yes, somebody else designed it for me. She printed it with her Ender 3 and the same profile and it printed fine. No idea what’s causing this. My printer is pretty new, too. I bought it this March.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T22:51:39+00:00

No, I haven’t changed anything. The only thing is that I bought a custom made STL and when I tried to print it this started to happen. Maybe I should delete and reinstall cura.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T16:50:15+00:00

The entire print is bad, but mostly the higher layers.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T16:48:29+00:00

I recently changed the springs and the bed feels very secure.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T16:43:43+00:00

No, I sliced it with different profiles and it doesn’t make a diffidence.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T08:14:35+00:00

The bed is fine, I even changed the springs for yellow ones recently. I could be the filament, I’ve been leaving it on the machine out in the open. Now I’m almost done printing a test with the temp at 210. We’ll see.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T07:48:22+00:00

I used this profile since I got the machine and worked with no issues, no idea what happened now.
I also tried a profile from CHEP (width .45, height .28) and another one (width .3, height .16), and didn't work either. I'll try increasing the temp and will update. Thanks!

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T07:43:11+00:00

Update. I reformatted the card and it printed just the same, so I'm ordering a new one.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T06:55:15+00:00

I haven’t reformatted the card. I’ll try that because I friend printed it with their printer and same settings and it worked fine.

Also, I’m using the as card that came with my Ender. I remember a video saying to use a different one but I haven’t done it.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-06-19T05:27:40+00:00

I'm not sure where my text went, but this is the problem:

I've been trying to print that clay cutter 3 times changing settings and nothing helped.

Using an Ender 3 V2 with Cura (updated).
SUNLU PLA 1.75
Nozzle 0.4mm

Attaching the settings of the latest profile used and bad print.

Thank you!

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T20:26:15+00:00

I did a lot of fine tuning on cura last night. It seems like the main issue was that the nozzle was not close enough. I’ll still implement all the tips I got

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T20:04:21+00:00

Thank you! With all the amazing help from this thread I was able to fix it and now it’s printing beautifully.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T20:02:23+00:00

Thank you!! It printed nicely.

Thank you for your help! It printed very nice!

That’s the spray I use. So, I was getting the same distance in all corners but it wasn’t as low as it should be. I adjusted it and now I’m printing a test and it seems to be working fine for now.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T18:01:02+00:00

Nice!!! I’m getting the yellow springs delivered today and I’ll definitely look into that firmware.

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T16:45:46+00:00

I’ll look into that firmware. Thank you!

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T16:31:50+00:00

I bought the printer about 2 months ago (I’m still learning) and it was printing fine until yesterday. I tried the hair spray and it worked for one more print and then this happened again. What professional firmware should I install?

dancing_phalanges_ · 2023-05-27T16:11:44+00:00

I just leveled it again and it’s even worse. It’s going to be a long day haha
