Comment on What issue is this? Something with the z-seam?
charles@lemmy.world 1 year agoI think you might be on to something with retraction. The open cubes didn’t show it with the solid corner. I’ll be able to print another test print tomorrow once the second copy of this print is done. I’ll make a smaller cup tomorrow.
One question, when I manually feed the PETG into the 0.8 nozzle, the filament feels… Gummy? Springy? Not at all like when I’ve typically fed PLA into 0.4mm. I wonder if the springyness is leading to weird retraction

PLA is much harder and more brittle. Also PETG loves moisture and printers hate wet PETG, just saying
