I print with a very high (95%) fill rate for some mechanical parts i make. I get some serious corner bulging. What is the trick to reduce/eliminate corner bulging? Thanks

usually - calibration :D

but depends on type of corners, if corners are too sharp you can have rounding of the corners, that deposits too much plastic in the corner and they go up, solution is usually lowering jerk significantly so you have slowdown at corners, dropping accel and speed also helps .. next, if you heat is too high the corners will go up, solution, lower the heat, increase the cooling... most often, you are pushing too much plastic, lowering the extrusion ratio a bit solves the problem
