Great news! Your machine is not the problem

#

Printing on points like that is usually a recipe for disaster

#

And the overhangs go unsupported for a very long didtance

#

Idk where you got this model, but you should print it in a way that gives it more surface area on the build plate

#

You may need to subduct it into the plate by a few mm

#

ok take your preview and then draw down the layer-by-layer slider halfway

inland bane
#

ok

#

now what

stiff yarrow
#

look at it

#

and tell me if you think that's gonna survive

inland bane
#

it looks fine to me

stiff yarrow
#

are you sure about that

inland bane
#

stiff yarrow
#

inland bane
stiff yarrow
#

#

#

there we go

#

it might not be optimal but its an improvement

inland bane
#

what could be optimal

stiff yarrow
#

im not the one with the file

inland bane
#

oh right

stiff yarrow
#

i lowered it into the floor by 1mm because this model isnt really made for printing and that gives it a flat surface to sit on

inland bane
#

i tried it that way and it still failed

stiff yarrow
#

is this the "correct" slice? no because theres no such thing

#

you may have bed adhesion issues

stiff yarrow
inland bane
#

I use rafts and the bed is magnetic bed brand new

#

could it be im printing at 100 speed

stiff yarrow
#

my dawg, im not omniscient. i only know what i can print with my machine

#

and my machine isnt enormously special

#

if there are issues beneath issues, youre gonna need to do some work to either sort them out, or describe them in a VERY detailed way hopefully with pics and/or video

inland bane
#

how do I sink it

stiff yarrow
#

type a negative number into the z value of the translation menu thingy on the right side

inland bane
#

Ok

night coral
#

also small tip, go into preferences, and there should be a checkbox for "automatically drop"

#

disable that and it should help
