Help perfect my Benchy!
Howdy all!
Brand new to this 3d printing world.
Having made my first Benchy I thought "Wow! this guy looks great!"....then I went to youtube and saw what truly great benchies look like....
This bottom of mine has plenty of gaps, and the box at the top is not solid.
I did my best with the first layer calibration and feel like it came out well, but not sure if I need to calibrate that more, or if there are some slicer settings that would be ideal to adjust to help my poor boat.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
RE: Help perfect my Benchy!
Your z-offset is too high, there shouldn't be any gaps between the filament.
The rest of the Benchy looks as if you have wobble on your X-Axis and/or Y-Axis. Check your belt tension and make sure all your screws are tight.

Was that Benchy printed on a modern Prusa? It should be a lot smoother than that.
Double check that the settings used in Prusaslicer match that of the printer. A Prusa Mk3 series comes with a 0.4mm nozzle installed, the settings used for printing should read "Original Prusa Mk3s and Mk3s+" for the default 0.4mm nozzle.
If the printer selected is something like "Original Prusa Mk3s and Mk3s+ 0.25mm nozzle" while a 0.4 (default) nozzle is in the machine, something like that might happen.
Happy Printing!
