First picture is two prints using the same settings first print (right) is mostly fine other than a pressure advance issue. Second print (left) has some nasty seams, what looks like holes between the layers. Second pic has clearer image of uneven layers.

Both printed in pla with a .6mm nozzle at 205 c, 200mm/s speed, 6000mm/s acceleration. Layer height of .48mm.

Any idea what would cause the massive variation between these prints and how to avoid it in the future?

A bit hard to say why they are so different... I tend to think that 205c is generally too low for 200mm/s on a 0.6 nozzle... You may just not be able to flow enough plastic at that speed.

It's possible that the smaller piece comes out better assuming that the slicer is slowing you a bit to maintain a minimum layer time...

All speculation really but first thing I'd try is going up to 220c, or slowing to 80 or 100 mm/s, see if that improves things

I'll try that in the morning then
