Inconsistent layer lines - fixed

Sharing this for anyone that may run into this issue.

I had inconsistent layer lines, and every uneven layers. Primarily on the front of my prints. I was also experiencing a lot of jams and issues with the extruder wearing through the filament to the point where it couldn’t push or pull the filament.

Fix: I routed the filament through the back panel, reducing the turns in the ptfe tube.

Image notes:
Benchys facing together: both printed by the same extruder with filament routed from inside bottom of enclosure. The starboard side of the boat was the front.

Benchys facing the right: left boat printed with filament inside enclosure, right boat with the filament routed outside of enclosure.

Individual boats: highlighting the layer issues. The orange bottom is after the fix.
