Hey guys, I just cannot get a print to adhere to my bed (and its the last part of a 6 part kit too...)
After ~12 failed prints and a good amount of time crouched down staring at the first layer and my nozzle, what seems to be happening is that when a line of filament has finished beint printed, the filament somehow sticks to the nozzle or the PLA still in the nozzle, so the recraction and Z hop just slightly lift that line of PLA. Then when the next line comes next to it gets printed it also gets lifted and sticks to the old line and before the first layer is even finished the whole thing is just a mess. (weirdly enough it also seems to happen in the same 2 places?)
SV06, Default OS, Standard Ender PLA,
Things ive tried:
- Switching from a 5-prints new 0.6mm nozzle to a brand new 0.4mm nozzle
- Switching from black PLA to grey PLA
- Changing bed temp to 50, and nozzle temp from 195 (what i normally print at) to 205
- A multitude of tiny Z axis adjustments - the offset seems completely fine and im getting optimal "squish"
- Giving my bed a wipe of IPA
- Brim and Skirt bed adhesion (i tend to use brim)
- ive checked under the print bed for any debris (which would make sense as its happening in the same place it seems, nope)
- Moving the model in cura to a different part of the bed
- changing print speed down to 40mm/s
- 0.2mm quality - 0.32mm quality
- Checking all my cura settings to make sure theres no mess ups in there like disabling retraction or forgetting to change nozzle size - from what I can tell, on the PC end is doing fine
I dont have a heated enclosure so cant try that. An idea i had is that maybe the bed isnt heating uniformly? but i dont have an IR thermometer so I cant really test that. Ive also not tried the gluestick trick but again... not had to in a year of printing.
Maybe it could be the PLA being "wet"? but ive never had any problems at all like this so im honestly wondering if i just need a new extruder.
Thanks in advance.



ooooooo
