Wow,That PETG can really stick to the build surface. I have destroyed a PEI surface by starting too close to it.

Yes definitely fixed it with a new extruder mount.

I was printing in an enclosure without any windows, so, I just didn't notice the extruder motor swinging side to side.

Thanks, I'll give a go that way, I was thinking maybe standing up with the cable outlet holes on the build plate, but that might be a little ambitious.

I would like to print the Metal Motor shroud (Metal Motor Mount Shroud - Body r2.stl) from the GITHUB repository. https://github.com/MakerGear/M2/blob/master/Printed%20Parts/STL/V4%20Hotend/Metal%20Motor%20Mount%20Shroud%20-%20Body%20r2.stl but I can't figure out the best orientation to print it. Ca...

It's been a long time since I started looking into this problem. I really couldn't find a fix so I left it for a while. Last weekend I decided to strip the whole machine down and to thoroughly clean everything. I was hopeful, but my problems continued. Then, yesterday, as I was observing a print tha...

Ed, at first I thought no that couldn't be the cause. But thinking more about what is different from when I was getting good prints until now, maybe it is. I also have a new stock of filament. I did some quick measurements and found that the diameter varies quite a bit, from 1.70mm to 1.80mm I guess...

<r>My printer was working really well for a long time. I'm running a 0.5mm nozzle and the prints were nice and I was getting very few problems with the filament.<br/> I then started to print a project which has a wide base and thin walls rising from the base. I was getting contraction problems with ...

What would cause the weird looking wobble in the bottom right corner of the print.
Sorry about the photo focus - the table was moving when I took the picture.

I am printing with ABS and a 0.5 nozzle.
