MK3S Blobs
Can someone tell me how to eliminate the small blobs of filament that I get on almost every start of every print, usually around the third layer? If I catch it I can cut it off and the print will resume without problems. If not sometimes it will cause a crash.

maybe your nozzle is leaking?

agreed... most likely the nozzle isn't tight to the heatbreak.
This guy demonstrates how the nozzle should be installed within the block against the heatbreak, tightening it cold against the heatbreak with ~1mm of gap between the nozzle and block. Then heat it up to 285c and tighten the nozzle again while its hot.
There may be better videos out there specifically for I3 Mk3S...
