Just started making a weird grinding or shhhh sound when printing.

This is a new noise, that just started about 20 minutes ago, and seems to be getting worse.   I think it happens mainly on Y axis moves?   Here is a video of the sound.  it is the Shhhh or grinding maybe? sound that can be heard off and on.    https://photos.app.goo.gl/XDqorudXbDM2SsuQA

RE: Just started making a weird grinding or shhhh sound when printing.

Hi Mander,

I have heard similar "shhh" sounds on my prints when I'm printing designs with large sealed voids or cavities that are narrow at the top.  I'm pretty sure this is just your part cooling fan (on the left side of your print head) blowing down into the voids and making noise.  This is similar to blowing into or across the top of a drink bottle.  This isn't something to worry about, but can get a bit noisy for certain prints.

Cheers!
