Any ideas on what is causing this issue?
Any ideas on what is causing this issue?
I've been getting some problem layers with this filament, especially on flat pieces like this. The first layer is always good, but flat layers (top and bottom) that are not on the bed are not great, like the filament is sagging and not connecting to the lines next to it, regardless of if they are supported or not. This one was a flat layer (completely horizontal) that was fully supported with the zigzag supports from the sovol version of cura.
I know ideally I wouldn't have totally flat overhangs like this but with the piece I want to print there isn't really a way around that other than printing multiple flat parts and gluing them together.
I am using a Sovol sv06 and overture PLA. I did not have this issue with the sovol silk silver pla.
I've tried leveling my bed again and I think mu z offset is OK because the first layers look good. Currently I'm printing another temp tower and will try some other calibration pieces but any help is appreciated
You're viewing a single thread.
Looks like you might need to level your bed. That or you need to run temperature test cube. Some filament run better in different temperatures. For me, when I find a brand/color that I works well, I keep using it since I know it's operating temp.
I did do a temp tower test and found a good temperature. I did try running through the auto bed leveling on the SV06 as well and it didn't change anything. I have read other methods of bed leveling that are better for the SV06 so I may give those a try too.
I can definitely see the advantage of sticking with one brand of filament. Being new I kind of assumed PLA is PLA but there has been a noticeable difference between the two that I have tried
Did you ever fix your issue?
Yes, I put a top level comment with details. The e steps were off causing it to under extrude
I don't see that comment here for some reason.
Oh that's odd. The direct link to it is here
That is odd because your link shows there are 21 comments on the post while for me I can only see 8 comments.
I have had some similar issues when posting or interacting with other instances, especially kbin.social
I have been unable to vote or comment, and I have had other times when I can't see comments from the other instances and they can't see mine.
Something similar may be going on here with lemmy.one but I don't know.
I was wondering if its a defederation issue. Perhaps if the top level comment is from a defederated instance, none of the child comments display either.
That is odd because this post is only showing 5 comments for me while your direct link shows 20 comments. Wonder where the others went...?
Fantastic! Glad you fixed it :)
