Hairy prints!

I am having printing problems. The inside of the model shown is getting a bit hairy. The green print was printed several years ago and is perfect. The white print is a recent print. I don’t think the printing process has been modified but I may be wrong there. I wouldn’t have thought the print head would venture far away from the printed model to produce the effect shown.

Re: Hairy prints!

Different spool of filaments, even of the same material, could print differently. You can try tuning it again for this filament, this might help: https://www.simplify3d.com/resources/pr ... or-oozing/

Re: Hairy prints!

Also, if your filament has been sitting around or the packaging leaked, moisture can make stringing much worse. Try drying it and see if that helps.
