[Help] First Layer ripples and divits
Prusa i3 MK3 Kit, I have done the first layer tune and z axis calibration (as well as all the other calibrations) When I do the First layer test it all comes out just fine. Any ideas what is causing this?

There are a ton of long threads about first layer inconsistencies, but the bottom line is that the mesh level isn't always 100% accurate for a variety of reasons. First, make sure you're on the latest firmware (3.1.3 or 3.2 RC2) and completely redo the self test and xyz cal.
After that you can play with a few different settings if it continues to form waves and use this as a quick test: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1776031
-first layer width: I usually use 130-140%, if you haven't already changed this then raise your live Z a few microns and increase width
-mesh level correction: using the thing I linked
-Live Z: the value from the first layer cal is never what I end up using, for me its always slightly higher for some reason
