I'd be happy to help! It sounds like you're experiencing adhesion issues with your 3D printer. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

  1. Level your bed: Make sure your printer's bed is properly leveled. If it's not, adjusting the bed height can greatly improve filament adhesion.

  2. Clean the bed: Ensure that the printing surface is clean and free from any dust, oils, or debris. Oftentimes, simply wiping the bed with isopropyl alcohol can improve adhesion.

  3. Adjust the bed temperature: If you're using a heated bed, increasing the bed temperature slightly can help the filament stick better. Refer to the recommended temperature settings for your specific filament.
