increase the raft air gap to .4 and they should come off easier

#

if you are still having trouble you are probably at too high a temp

frosty carbon
#

So I’ve tried both and it’s just perfectly glued to the print I can’t seem to figure it out

harsh pulsar
#

youve tried both since this morning?

#

unless your bed is leveled horribly... a pic may help of the print on the bed

frosty carbon
#

I don’t really have a print going atm but I got this

harsh pulsar
#

doesnt look like you are leveled

frosty carbon
#

Even if my prints themselves are solid?

harsh pulsar
#

yup

#

why use a raft?

frosty carbon
#

How am I not leveled

harsh pulsar
#

rafts can mask poor leveling

frosty carbon
#

Genuine question everything said I was good

#

Should I run a brim and see how that goes

harsh pulsar
#

print a cube with no raft

#

yeah

frosty carbon
#

Ight I’ll be back in about 10-15 with more info

frosty carbon
#

Everything seems level and even I popped the brim off but there’s some that just won’t get off

harsh pulsar
#

looks like you might be too close

#

got a pic of layer 1

frosty carbon
#

Of a raft?

#

Or just this again

harsh pulsar
#

just that again

frosty carbon
#

Okay

#

It’s fast so hope that works

harsh pulsar
#

you can just stop it after that layer

#

looks good from those pics though

#

what temp are you using

frosty carbon
#

Lol good point

#

215 and bed 65

harsh pulsar
#

regular pla?

frosty carbon
#

Plus

#

It’s what I run it at on my ender3s1

harsh pulsar
#

pic is a bit blurry... temps sound right.. a temp tower would tell for sure but not sure

#

raft air gap at .4?

frosty carbon
#

Raft air gap .4

harsh pulsar
#

cool

frosty carbon
#

That was the first layer I layed it back down so it might look odd

harsh pulsar
#

looks good

frosty carbon
#

Ight. I’m not sure what else to do then😅

harsh pulsar
#

i would try a lower temp

#

205

frosty carbon
#

On pla plus?

harsh pulsar
#

yup

frosty carbon
#

It’s lowest is 210 reccomend

harsh pulsar
#

run a temp tower themn

#

then

frosty carbon
#

Tbh idrk how that works. How does it switch between temps lol

Also another way, and just for testing purposes unless you want to get into complex slicers, try superslicer which comes with scripts per installed for calibration ie bed and flow, temp towers. And guides or how to adjust and what good prints and parts should be like.

harsh pulsar
#

also have you calibrated your e steps?

frosty carbon

Not weird just foreign to me
