Hi, having a little problem with Blobs on the inside of my perimeters. this is only happening on internal walls, and only with my PLA profile? (retraction is 0.5mm @40mms,costing @0.2mm direct drive, i3, 0.6mm nozzle, 0.3mm layer height) https://i.imgur.com/AJgGyuu.jpg Also, have another issue on th...

Thank you, will give this a try!

try lowering your extra restart distance on the extruder tab. If the extruder is preforming a retract on the change in positions, it may be overextruding as it reprimes the extruder. That you, what would a good starting point be, as its currently set to 0.00? (Retraction distance is 4mm, retraction...

When you extrude over fee space, does the filament tend to curl in one specific direction? this can indicate that the nozzle is partially clogged or worn [/quote] Not really, it flows straight down when I extrude, rather then curing to one side, and is a relatively new TwinClad XT coated nozzle that...

Why not add a one-layer brim? That will stop the free-running extrusion at the start affecting the part....and will create extra bed adhesion. Sorry, i was not clear on my post, I am already printing a brim/skirt 5mm offset from the part. Or, do you mean a brim attached to the part? as I don't see ...

Hey guys, when I start extruding an outline for the first layer I get a little excess plastic that stick up in the air, and then make for a really untidy bottom layer when the infill then sticks to it. http://i.imgur.com/w3z2rC3.jpg First thought I may have the nozzle to near the bed, so lifted it, ...

Personally, I like to print a part with a few perimeter outlines and then adjust the multiplier until those perimeters are perfectly touching. I find that's a much better way to calibrate versus a single extrusion since it mimics a real print better. That sound like a good tip! I assume to do it so...

Hello guys, switched out to a 0.6mm nozzle on my printer and with the extrusion width set to auto (0.72) I get a 0.78mm extrusion width, so I need to change my extrusion multiplier from 1 to 0.92 (0.72/0.78=0.92), right? I was also wondering why 0.72, is it a general rule of thumb that you want to e...
