I thought curling as well, but I would expect that on higher angles instead. Its easy to confirm this if you watch the print. The solution would be lowering nozzle temp and slowing down the print (well, not less than 10 mm/s). I’ve seen that also too much cooling can cause curling, but thats for super strong part cooling
Comment on Any ideas what causes this in overhangs?

The corners are slowly curling up more and more until the nozzle goes completely outside of the curl and becomes an overhanged corner.
The biggest problem is what ever is causing your plastic to curl while printing. Some plastics are terrible for it and you basically need a heated chamber to get rid of it. You could try playing with cooling settings or making a warmer environment, or … something else. Half the time if it’s a problem, I have to change the print or its orientation or add geometry so it doesn’t curl… It’s such a pain sometimes.

Thanks. I’ll experiment with temperatures first but I’ve got some different filament on the way too as it happens, so hopefully I’ll manage to escape the problem one way or another 😁
