Pot holes on surface

[frozen folio]

So I have hadthis in a dryer until it reached 18% humidity, I have done e-steps, and pressure advance, and don't know what else to try

[frozen folio]

This is my current pressure advance tower and looking beat to 💩 , I have a .6 nozzle set in configuration and slicer, this is at the recommended 75% layer height which is .45 and printed at 265c bed temp 110 and speed of 100mm

What hotend do you have?

[frozen folio]

Rapido

[inner tide]

The extruder is the lgx lite?

[frozen folio]

Sorry was at work , it's the orbiter 2.0 and the rapido uhf setup

Might need to take the whole thing apart, seems its being blocked, also you didnt say the material but Im assuming asa?

[frozen folio]

Yeah ASA, going to do that today, even though new block and nozzle was done other day but will give it another go,might have missed something thanks

The first picture has happened to me and its usually under extrusion when going to fast over 35mm^3. However your second picture looks like extreme. Might be the extrude skipping? Make sure everything is centered.

Yeah so going to rebuild the hotend and have a PT1000 on the way so hopefully that with a new nozzle will solve some but seems like I always have little pot marks every print, shouldn't e-steps cure most of that then doing the flow calibration in slicer should solve the rest , and I always make sure my filament is below 20% humidity but it is a really wet winter for us so that may be a losing battle till summer

The newest Rapido comes with the p1000 already tho? I dont think that would solve your issue if the temp is reporting correctly. Is this new build or all of a sudden just started happening? E steps cant contribute but if your using RatOS wit the built in configuration then tbh no need to do e-steps, i would check them but when I did it came on spot on. Of course a flow test should solve issues where accuracy or too much flow in prints, but this is a bit extreme.

The Rapido I received has the k500 and they still offer both versions although the same price so why not go with the PT1000, this is new problem with a new heater block, so switched it back to one I had previously thought faulty for a different reason and now printing fine again . So the new heater block was faulty some how even though it appeared fine.

[gray ocean]

Gotcha, glad you found the issue tho

[frozen folio]

So much better, it is weird because it was a brand new heat block and still looks great so wonder if their is a gouge on the inside or something, no evidence of leaking between the nozzle and block so very strange indeed

[gray ocean]

Ok totally unrelated...did you just show up on my FYP????

[frozen folio]

Yup, that's me, I work in retail for years and no one believes those actions contribute to rising costs. But that won't change anything

[gray ocean]

How creepy weird is that! It was so random!
