Hey y’all, I managed to hack together a printer from scratch and I’m struggling to get it to print well. It’s a CoreXY system that’s being controlled by a Octopus 1.1. Dual z screws, the works.
I have it moving under it’s own power and all. It’s able to actually print, but the results are atrocious.
I’m just trying to diagnose what’s wrong here.
The bottom/first layer actually looks kinda good. It’s just completely shredding subsequent layers.
Any advice would be appreciated!
You z-step might be off. I.e. z i mooving too far each layer.
I think you might be onto something but the other direction. I think it’s not moving quite enough per layer.
Partial clog, possibly due to not a high enough extruder temp.
Do a few cold pulls and bump your print temp 10
Is your z height calibrated? Is your nozzle dragging as it prints the higher layers?
Is your extrusion calibrated? You may need to bump the extrusion multiplier
