                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Community :-) </p><p>I'm printing since a while with PRUSA MK3S and PRUSAMENT PETG, and I've checked several articles about WARPING, but I please need your help :-). </p><p>Target is a model boat which will be 1,8 meters, so I need to print in sections (you can find a total view in the pictures). <br />The bigger sections also need to be divided in Left and Right to fit in the printer. </p><p>I'm facing a problem on the front parts, which have quite a "Deep V" at the keel. <br />When I printed first with an additional complete vertical surface (see print result at the right resp. front), it's straight in the middle. <br />When I tried to do without this surface (see print result in the middle), it's starting to warp - with a bow, which of course is wrong. <br />Next I tried with a vertical "helper" (see print result on the left resp. in behind) - but it got worse. Strong bow on the downside and to the left.</p><p>Fun part: <br />- The endpoints fit to the next segment! So it must be a problem during printing. <br />- all other surfaces seem to be fully correct. </p><p>Temperature should be perfect (as requested on the filament), and as far as I can remember this happens inside the cabinet and also outside. </p><p>Who has an idea please? Can it be a mechanical problem, although all other surfaces seem to be correct? Shall I simply try again with the full vertical surface? </p><p>Thank you in advance!  <br />Gerhard </p><p><a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/ca03fa34-pj-72m-total.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-179487" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/ca03fa34-pj-72m-total-600x500.png" alt="" width="600" height="500" /></a> <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/33704249-20250814_160532-scaled.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-179486" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/33704249-20250814_160532-600x500.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="500" /></a> <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/901da4be-20250814_160527-scaled.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-179485" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/901da4be-20250814_160527-600x500.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="500" /></a> <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/b9658bd2-20250814_160517-scaled.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-179484" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/b9658bd2-20250814_160517-600x500.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="500" /></a> <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/7241d348-20250814_160506-scaled.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-179483" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/7241d348-20250814_160506-600x500.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="500" /></a> <a href="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/4ffe83ab-20250814_160457-scaled.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-179482" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/prusa3d-content-prod-14e8-wordpress-forum-prod/2025/08/4ffe83ab-20250814_160457-600x500.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="500" /></a></p><p> </p>]]></content:encoded>
