sorry mate, but we neither have a crystal ball nor are we augurs...

why don't you just set up a camera and record the printing, maybe in time lapse mode ?

Wonder if the mk2 cable bundle his hitting the print, use zip ties to keep it out of the way. You could slice it in half. The use super glue with baking soda to weld the two pieces.

💡 jep, this might be the problem. btw.: i've attached my cable trunk with rubber bands to the top of my spool holder, so it'll be pulled upwards a little bit and always be higher than the print.

I super glued an angle bracket and zip tied it to the cables to stop it from hitting. My intent is when I get it fixed to print the new electronics enclosure that fixes that issue. I appreciate you help, I have a non sarcastic thread going here http://shop.prusa3d.com/forum/original-prusa-i3-mk2-f23/bizarre-print-fail-later-in-print-t3949.html with more details if you don't mind helping out some more.

FYSA, the issue was the extruder motor cable was damaged and having problems when strained toward the front left of the bed.
