Sorry, getting used to this interface. The first print is on the left, the second on the right. The prints look great and then it looks like they lose adhesion. I recalibrated Z after the first time it happened and thought I had it kicked. Prusa PLA Grey 1.75mm filament

RE:

Thanks for the pix. Your first layer calibration is not quite where it needs to be. It is putting your nozzle too high. You are not getting enough squish against the bed which causes poor adhesion. The following picture is what you are aiming for. Notice how the lines of fill snug up to the perimeters.
