Sometimes the top layer warps
Hi there!
I’m having this problem, and I don’t understand why it’s happening. With some models that have curved bases, when I print them, the first few layers seem to warp, while with other models, they come out perfect—solid and straight. I’m not even sure if the problem is with the first layer… I don’t understand why this happens since I’m using the same print settings. Any suggestions?
Thank you so much!
RE: Sometimes the top layer warps
I think this is the difference (image). For some reason, the first layer always ends up smaller. If I upload a simple cube, it does the same thing, and then it distorts the text underneath. I don't understand why most people make this first layer thinner...
Show us a picture of the underside of a failed print then save your project as a .3mf file
Files > Save Project as
Zip the .3mf and post it here. It will contain both your part and your settings for us to diagnose.
Cheerio,
