Re: Model not printing very good

Well i have only joined this forum today and see that no one has replied to your request but i would say there is some serious under extrusion going on there, its difficult to see from the supplied images but it looks like the layers are simply laying on top of the build platform rather than being forced onto it.

Reasons for this could be varied form hardware / software set up to poor filament but it does look like there is simply not enough plastic being extruded the base layers should be solid and bonded together.

Always remember if you first layer/s are not correct then whatever you put on top of it will most likely fail, get this right before continue.

Your first layer should look a little like the attached video

Good luck and keep me updated on how your getting on.
