Have you measured the filament diameter?

Otherwise you suffer from capricorn sydrome. I bet if you go back to boring cheapo bowden it works again.

[vagrant ridge]

yes it's pretty accurate. I'd say +-0.025

[vagrant ridge]

what causes capricorn syndrome?

[loud oak]

And how much play allows the xs?

[vagrant ridge]

sounds like something one of those astrology girls would call me

[vagrant ridge]

its pretty smooth and frictionless when i push filament through

[loud oak]

Well capricorn is like astrology or healinh crystals

[vagrant ridge]

word

lemme check tolerances on the xs one sec

[loud oak]

It might work if you lie to yourself hard enough

[vagrant ridge]

inner diameter is 1.95 +-0.05

I have to say ... im impressed they kinda say that their product makes issues there 🙂

[vagrant ridge]

that's how you know theyre the real deal

so sounds like I should try out a TL tube

[loud oak]

Just a normal one ... as long as you dont run a expensive farm with very special filament you dont really get a benefit

[vagrant ridge]

TL is the normal one right?

as opposed to the xs which i have rn

[loud oak]

https://youtu.be/7tCxO17XZtw you can try that if you insist on using it

[vagrant ridge]

i mean like when you say normal what do you mean

like the creality stock ones?

The cheapo 2mm internal i dont care about ptfe tube

[vagrant ridge]

ah dope okay, i'll try that out. i probably have some spare somewhere. thanks!

[loud oak]

You are welcome 🙂 i made the same mistake 🙂 so its easy to make

[vagrant ridge]

alright it's working better now! however i'm getting some weird blobbiness on the overhangs and really pronounced layer lines. any ideas?

[loud oak]

Zseam i guess
