Elephant Foot on Vcore 4
Hi all,
I was hoping for a little advice on how to address elephant footing on my prints on my new Vcore 4. I'm not sure its new, I just think it hasn't matter much until my current model, which won't function with the fat lower layers.
I'm pretty much running with defaults. I've messed with cooling a bit on the PLA profile. I've been waiting for my IDEX kit, so I haven't really gone crazy with "making it my own."
But I've never dealt with Beacon before. I can't tell if this might be a z-offset issue causing an oversquished first layer?
I'm also new to OrcaSlicer. I tried doubling the default compensation, but it hasn't helped much.
So now I'm leaning toward re-running my beacon calibrations.
- Is there anything you'd do first before re-calibrating to eliminate other variables? (Again - new to Beacon)
- Is there anything you would due prior or during beacon calibration to ensure optimal results that may correct this?
- Am I missing something in OrcaSlicer that may be causing this?
Thanks to the braintrust.
