Turned on retraction speed to 11 and i guess it wore down the filament at one part but then managed to push it after some 10 minutes of spaghetti 👌

    Getting an auto leveler was a game changer for me. I still manually level the bed and check the Z offset every two months or so along with other maintenence, but I’ve gone on week long printing sprees without touching the bed springs once.

        A few tips that made my prints much better:

        • Check if your rollers are tight enough. None of the axes should wobble if you pull on them
        • Use a PEI sheet for printing
        • Clean the PEI Sheet with Soap and Water at least once
        • Clean with IPA after every print
        • Don’t touch the print bed. The oil on your skin really doesn’t help with sticking.
        • Get yourself a metal feeler gauge with 0.2mm. Level your bed heat nozzel and bed to your normal print temp an then move the nozzel 0.2 mm above the bed. Adjust your Z Offset until you can get the metal gauge undr the nozzle but still feel it touching. that should be your perfect height

        I used to have a lot of problems with parts lifting up or my prints being unclean but since I did this my prints look great and stick to the bed.
