good first layer?

is this a good first layer or is it too close to the plate?

Re: good first layer?

Hi Kagekitsune,

it's not far off...
difficult to say with white from that angle, if you run your fingers across the surface and it's slightly rough, then you may be a bit too low...
if the surface feels smooth, then you are about right

why not note the live Z value, re run the print, let it complete about a third of the layer, then reduce the live Z a bit and see what happens for the next third of the layer, then increase live Z a bit above the start value and see what happens. this may help you see how live Z affects your print.

regards Joan

Thanks, I would try say -.780 and see what it looks and feels like on the top.
