Print gets striations at the end
Good afternoon, all.
I have a fairly new MK3s+, with a fair number of successful prints under its belt. I recently put it in a Lack enclosure and was able to print all the parts for that - mounts, spool holders, etc - with no issues.
I'm now running into this degradation of a print, which seems odd to be happening only in the corner.
I've gone through a complete recalibration and redone the Z-axis offset for the build plate. During the first part of that process, I did accidentally let the nozzle scratch part of the build tray - hope that hasn't caused this, although I'm not sure how it would?
I can print a test article and it seems to turn out as expected. There's a bit of blobbing during the initial wipe, but that's what that's for? I'm sure there's something I should adjust here, but am not sure that it is. I feel like I'm in the 'know enough to be dangerous' realm but would greatly appreciate some guidance.
Thanks!
RE: Print gets striations at the end
What is your retraction setting for that print that failed?
RE: Print gets striations at the end
Have you tried rotating the print to a different angle in the slicer? I would start there and see if you get a different result.

Also, maybe pull that up in the slicer and run the layer slider down to that area and watch the nozzle path. That problem you see might be at the end of a line, but it also might be at the beginning, depending on which way the nozzle travels.
