Comment on New to printing, not sure how to diagnose issues
Spiffyman@slrpnk.net 1 week agoHere are some more pictures, with better lighting.
The printer is a Sovol SV08, which is a corexy printer with pla. I use Freecad to design the parts and OrcaSlicer 2.3.1 to slice it. It is in my room on a desk in the open air and I have a fan running in the room. Several people have mentioned it cooling too fast, so I am suspecting that fan being the issue…

yep, that ceiling fan is 100% your culprit - the constant airflow is cooling your layers too quickly on those longer prints making them brittle, try building a simple cardboard enclosure around the printer to block the airflow and you’ll see a huge diffrence.
