During my print the base layer peels up slowly and warps causing the print to either fully come off the bed or causing a lopsided print! Any help would very much appreciated!

Clean your bed with 90% or higher isopropyl alcohol. Also make sure you have no big drafts in the room. If you have cool air blowing over the printer that can cause your prints to cool and release from the bed

I still suggest going to Walmart or somewhere and getting a bottle of high percent ipa to clean the bed. It doesnt have to be 99% but even 91% will do. I like to just wipe down the surface of my bed every maybe like 5 or 6 prints. Also it's worth wiping down if you have touched the bed with your hands. The more you touch the bed you will deposit oils and dirt from your hands in the bed and that can mess up adhesion overtime

Also run a bed level print test

# cedar hull Prob. Did you get ipa?

Just heading home from work so I’m gonna see if I can pick some up.
And yeah I’ve done so many and it’s settling fine, but part way through the print is when it starts to lift
