Printed Parts

Trying to print the tensioning system for the EVA 3.0.2 for my ratrig 3.1 that I am putting together. The tension blocks don't fit into the printed parts and I am printing with Overture PETG with a ender 3 v2 with sprite pro. I've printed the part about three times now and the tops and bottoms are to narrow and when putting the tension block in it bows the part out. I need help

Cracks/under extrusion in layers

I have the vcore 3.1 400x400. Rapido HF hot end. Using SuperSlicer with "default" settings for ratrig and PLA. It prints at 100mms. I have and use a filament dryer, which also acts as my spool holder. Orbiter 2.0 extruder....

Horizontal Artifacts?

I have a newly setup V-core 500mm and everything is working, although I have these horizontal artifacts that are stumping me. Ive tuned linear advance and input shaping, as well as esteps. Yet there are these strange gaps in some horizontal layers. Is it temperature related? I am using the PrusaSlicer profile. I slowed outer walls to 50mm/s and it still happens. I printed them at 205C, 100% fans (dual blower), and 0.3mm layer height. Any help is appreciated!...

Brown ABS turning paler in corners and edges of holes

Never saw this before. I have dark brown ABS and it seems in areas where pressure advance is applied (corners and edges) the color gets a shade lighter. Is it bad filament?

How to address pillowing?

Hello everyone, I am currently trying to print a large part with a very low infill (3%) and I am getting (what I suspect) is an extreme case of pillowing. The top surface could actually be due to bridging (the bridges look fine, but the might just sag enough to cause something like that). ...

weird extrusion artefacts.

Im not sure what this artifact is from.... i looks to be vibration generated but then again its not in the same spots as the ghosting and is pretty random on the straights. My belts are binding somewhere (waiting for FMMM) so im wondering if thats the issue. libra mini and rapido uhf....

I did the git clone, and it runs, building the mesh with temp .. any help would be appreciated....

Not sure what is causing this.....

Hi everyone. Swapped my slicer to Orca Slicer after some issues with Super Slicer in regards to infill seemingly badly under-extruded. Was running some test prints after calibrations etc and almost done, but my Benchy seems a bit strange on one side with some strange artefacts on it. Subsequent prints replicate it as well, so there is something that I have yet to optimise on it. Any suggestions would be really appreciated...

zone side slanted the other squished.

I get this regardless of speed and acceleration. Also pressure advance is set to 0.

Possible under-extrusion on infill

Hi everyone. Started a larger print tonight (V-Core 3 400), and noticed that the infill was a bit whispy and little parts were sticking up about the place. Looking closer and the infill seems to look under-extruded. Doing Cubic infill at 15%. Just wondering if anyone else has come across this issue at all. The solid layers are all fine and I have run through the calibration which all seemed very good. Benchy and Voron Cube came out as exected when setting up. Thanks in advance....

PS Modifier Fuzzy Skin

Hi guys, I have a little issue with the fuzzy skin in Prusaslicer - see attached photos. I have generally fuzzy skin on the part and added a modifier where I don't want fuzzy skin. The issue now is that the modifier creates an additional perimeter and builds up thickness which I don't want. I actually want the printer to stop doing XY movements on that excluded fuzzy skin section ... ...

MH Build Series PLA Has Horrible Stringing

This is more of a "tuning filament" question I suppose. I typically print with PETG and have little to no issues with it stringing. I wanted to have some PLA around and I bought some MatterHacker Build Series. It prints absolutely stunningly on smooth faces but any time there are gaps or jumps it strings to the point that it's basically unusable. The retraction tower shown was printed at 200C and is 15mm tall at 0.1mm retract steps (so ranged from 0mm to 1.5mm retraction). At this point I can only assume it's temperature? But the 190C print wouldn't even stick to the bed. Any thoughts or suggestions for reigning in this filament is appreciated....

wobble in walls and sinking top surface

Not sure that is going on here, I've reduced print speed and re tensioned the belts of my vcore3 and this is the best I can get it, it's also meant to be 20mm diameter

Troubleshooting benchy (heat issues)

Other benchy details are fine with the .3 layer height yet, the chimney doesn't deform due to heat, pla is set to 205. This is a print test after swapping back to my .4 nozzle from a .6 nozzle. Any help is appreciated...

Bad bed leveling

Hey y'all. I have a reasonably flat bed however my bed leveling doesn't seem to be working as I'd expect. All my probe settings are stock except my X/Y offset which is on the back right of the print head. Probe repeatability reads 5 micron and the printer definitely compensates some amount but clearly not enough. Is there something I'm missing here?
