ok i've been working on getting the printer dialed in and it was at first printing realy badly it looked like crumbled feta cheese i decided to waste some filament to try to figure out what the problem was and thought i might not have the stock heat setting set right so i bumped it up 10 degrees then let it go

EEEEeeeewwwwwwwwwww!!!!!
Just a guess, but it looks like you are not emitting enough plastic. Have you parked your head and checked the stream from the head with the filament advance button? Mine comes out in a steady string when I advance it a millimeter or two.

To me, it looks like it actually might be the opposite problem; that the extruder is set to put out too much plastic so that a blob gathers in front of the print nozzle that sticks to the print and causes it to be torn apart or knocked down when printing. This is what happened to me until I switched to slic3r, whose extrusion rates are much easier to adjust globally.

On a second look, I think you might be right. I have only had a couple of hours on my sd3 so far, so have very little experience. I am using the SD2 profile for slic3r as provided on the solidoodle web page (as I recall, I downloaded it months ago!) and it seems that it is spot on with my as yet meager printing experience.
the problem seems to be soemthing else thereis another thread explaining what seems to be happening
