Comment on Why am I having to level my Ender 3 s1 after every print?
GingeyBook@lemm.ee 1 year agoThe bed is completely heating before each print, I just about always let it preheat and do something else before I start the print
It is not enclosed, would that make that much of a difference? I’m talking like one print turns out great for the entire duration and then I go to print again and the first layer won’t even stick.
Not sure what you’re even asking with the other questions about slop, backlash, and z tilt. Will have to look into those

I ran into this with my e3v2 a LOT. Are you heating up the bed and nozzle before you level? You may have answered that and I missed it. Also, I’m not sure how well those silicon things work, I did the “yellow springs” and then make them all equally tight, then level by loosening. Another thing to check- is your build surface flat? Check when cold and hot. My glass bed wound up warping up near the middle ever so slightly and that would be enough to make a batch of moms spaghetti. I was able to get it working well for a while, then it somehow shit its pants into the silicone sock and mucked up the whole hotend with nice black pla+.

I am heating before I level, I’ve spent many many hours on it today and finally got something
Depending on how it goes when this print finishes I might switch back to the springs
