It’s not much but it’s something. I have been tinkering with a 3d printer that was left behind by the old owner of my house. After many days of trial and error I finally was able to get something to print! It feels so good to be able to make something out of basically nothing. It’s not perfect and I have more to learn but am excited about all the new opportunities!

    Looks like it may be underextruding a tiny bit, especially judging by the gaps between the walls. Try calibrating esteps and flow. Search for guides for this on Youtube. There are some handy websites too that you can input the numbers into and they’ll calculate the new esteps to use.

        definitely a bit of under extrusion.

        for the record, the formula is pretty simple.
        its ( [original esteps] x [intended length] ) / [obtained length] = [new value for esteps] I would suggest setting up a spreadsheet to simply the process.
