I'd also like to see your angled extruder.

It just jumbles up the filament and doesnt stick to bed, and its way to high even after 3 hours of z axis movement.....

HELP!

my tape is really scratched up bad, from first few prints...

also, is it normal my extruder is angled?

Make sure bed is clean, use acetone or alcohol or dishsoap

level the bed --->http://wiki.solidoodle.com/leveling-the-print-bed

set the Z height of the bed---> http://wiki.solidoodle.com/first-layers … e-z-offset

then check out some of these ---> http://wiki.solidoodle.com/solidoodle-1

got the printer, setup the z axis, and even resoldered the blue connector(was ruined when recieved)

only negative thing is the scratched tape..lol

however, when i print now the abs just bunches around the nozzle. like it wont come out and stick on the tape, just wants to bunch on the nozzle.

whats causing this?

I believe one of my settings is messed up..
