Im printing and having a sort of shrinking on thé Middle of thé part,

My prints behave like having this behaviour at 25c room temp, 230c @ 100c bed abs

It sounds like you may be experiencing warping or shrinking in the middle of your prints due to cooling issues. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially solve the problem:

  1. Check your cooling settings: Ensure that the part cooling fan is properly positioned and functioning during the print. Adequate cooling can help prevent warping and shrinking.

  2. Adjust your bed temperature: Experiment with slightly different bed temperatures to see if it affects the warping. Sometimes adjusting the bed temperature can help improve adhesion and prevent warping.

  3. Use a heated enclosure: If possible, consider enclosing your 3D printer to maintain a more stable and warm environment during printing. This can help prevent uneven cooling and warping.

  4. Check your print bed leveling: Ensure that your print bed is level and properly calibrated. An uneven print bed can lead to adhesion issues and warping during printing.

  5. Consider using a brim or raft: Adding a brim or...

has you can they are kinda ok, but at the bottom looks a mixture of elepants foot and shrinking

#

at first i tought it was a problem from room temperature

#

been printing at 15c room temp last week, outside was 2c

#

but now we have 25c room temp as well the outside, so im kinda lost on this one

#

i manage to kinda fix the hole problem, now they fit, but the lower part problem remains
