How long is a 10 year old? About 2.5 toddlers?
Printed this extra long cat snake on my ender3v3 (this thing is longer than my 10yo!). The print came great for the most part. What do you think happened at this one spot? Bed adhesion issue?

Anywhere from 5 to 7 bananas. Or about 0.01296 football fields.

Thanks for the link.
Is this print-in-place or a bunch of loose pieces that snap together ?

It’s print in place, but it took close to 7 hours to complete

Snakes like that are always print in place.

Yeah, looks like that exact segment shifted a little while printing. A typical culprit when it comes to localized adhesion issue is finger prints.

Ah. I wiped it with alcohol before printing, but I guess that doesn’t actually remove the fingerprints.

Dish soap and warm water will get rid of the fingerprint oil

What PattyMcB said, but also, IPA is better applied on a room temp hotbed, because if it’s too hot, the alcohol evaporates too quickly to be efficient.
